Stepping Forward: Calit2's eHealth Collaboratory

Stepping Forward: Calit2's eHealth Collaboratory, recorded on June 2, 2011. By using pressure sensors and an accelerometer, a balancemonitoring insole that fits into any shoe captures real-time data about the wearer’s gait as she goes about her daily business; the information is sent directly to a healthcare provider. This is just one of the many innovative technologies being developed in Calit2’s new eHealth Collaboratory. Advances in information technology are creating revolutionary healthcare-delivery options that can improve quality, reduce cost and provide patient empowerment.

Panel Participants: Vijay Gurbaxani, director of the Center for Research on Information Technology & Organizations, UCI business school professor Dr. Zeev Kain, UCI anesthesiologist, eHealth Collaboratory participant Dr. Ira Lott, UCI pediatric neurologist, director of telemedicine program for UCI Health Sciences Robert McCray, CEO and president, Wireless Life Sciences Alliance David Reinkensmeyer, iMove Center director, UCI engineering professor, and Jeff Russell, SHAPe lab director, UCI dance-science professor. Panel moderated by Gerard von Hoffmann, partner, Knobbe Martens LLP.
