The Challenges and Opportunities of Global Health

The Challenges and Opportunities of Global Health 150 150 IEEE Pulse
Few themes in health care require the breadth of innovation as closing disparities found in low resource settings. Defining an unmet need for regions and populations who have been deprived of care found elsewhere, and then formulating a solution calls for openmindeness and a broad skill set. The vectors of innovation may range from new technical solutions to changing the care pathway, or novel means of paying for health care. read more
