At this event Panos Constantinides, Professor of Digital Innovation and Digital Learning Lead for Executive Education at Alliance Manchester Business School, will launch his new book Digital Transformation in Healthcare: An Ecosystem Approach.

Digital Transformation in Healthcare: An Ecosystem Approach

In an era of digital transformation within healthcare management, this important book outlines an ecosystem perspective to illustrate how a range of actors can use digital technologies to offer better value within the provision of healthcare services.

From mobile applications to point-of-care diagnostic devices, from AI-enabled applications for data analysis to cloud models for service delivery and blockchain infrastructures, it provides a roadmap for how healthcare organizations can leverage these digital technologies. The book is also illustrated with case studies from different areas, including digital platforms for medical diagnostics, blockchain infrastructures for use in pharmaceutical supply chains and clinical trials, and federated learning platforms for genomics.

Covering key issues such as patients’ rights to data and written in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, the book will be essential reading for researchers and professionals interested in how technology can support and enable healthcare service provision.
