Topic: Engineering for Health Research.

Richard is a research engineer with many years of experience delivering computational solutions to medical research problems. Richard was one of the researchers responsible for designing the NCHA Health Research Data Platform which will underpin the centre’s research and translational activities.

Examples include using natural language processing to make hospital text records useful for research purposes, geospatial modelling for planning health service delivery and MRI in clinical studies, neurosurgery and clinical trials.

And then …

We are going to have an extend interval with drinks and nibbles and an opportunity to have a bit of a chat and generally socialise. We will provide light nibbles, tea, coffee and soft drinks. Feel free to BYO beer or vino.

… And then …

  • Hugh Macdonald, will deliver his President’s report
  • We will then get a report from an iHelp volunteer, who will be taking your question.
  • To wind up we’ll have as long as you like to chat over Zoom. Please feel free to hang around; the socialising is good medicine in these stressful times.

… and last but not least …

The restaurant has been arranged for WAFFLE, a relaxed social get together at nearby Fong’s Chinese restaurant. Details and maps will be available on the night.
