Future of Health Report

Put out through a collaboration between PSFK and Unicef, The Future of Health Report is an delicious and finely articulated overview of the current trends and opportunities facing the intersection of technology and healthcare today. What I respect about this report is its 10,000ft view accompanied by real, ground level insights and examples. The basic gist is that "advances in technology are allowing for the provision of affordable, decentralized healthcare and are lowering the barriers for access in less developed markets [communities]." Hope you take a look. Well done PSFK.

The Future Well

I stumbled across The Future Well while over at psfk. This is a team that centers its attention on health and global well being, in simpler terms--happiness. Using human centered design practices, they seem to focus on collaborative efforts to uncover the needs around lifestyle and preventative practices which affect our mental, physical and social/spiritual well being. Consumer based innovator comes together with preventative medicine-focused physician to build teams that design meaningful products, services and health related moments.

Could be something there....
