Overview
Providing a global platform of excellence to improve the global standard quality of life at every step through affordable healthcare and access to medicines; support innovation to improve overall wellness and improve societal outcomes; and to enable innovation through open and standardized means. The practice is focused on three main priority areas – clinical health, bio/pharmaceutical value chain, and wellness.
Featured
IEEE Global Registry for Mobile Health Apps
The global standardized registry will serve as a directory of apps that have attested and been assessed for satisfying technical, ethical, and clinical criteria requirements to attain an IEEE standard identifier for inclusion in the registry.
Re-Think Health Podcast
In this interview-style podcast, global healthcare stakeholders– technologists, researchers, clinicians, patient advocates, regulators, and more– re-think the approach to healthcare, from therapeutic discovery through bedside practice, utilizing new technologies and applications.
IEEE Cybersecurity TIPPSS for Industry Virtual Workshop Series | June 2024 - November 2024
Security by design for hardware, firmware, and software needs to be the first step in the development process and the TIPPSS architecture framework provides the blueprint for the design. The focus of each of these workshops is to introduce the application and use case requirements for the IEEE 2933-2024 architecture framework for TIPPSS in IoT, in the context of dynamic environments such as clinical trials subject monitoring, precision agriculture, connected vehicles, and transactive energy.
