I think the ppt is good and inspiring. It is narrated with a good education
example which is fair. Consumerism has created the “me” generation. the
revolution in information systems has resulted in the personal computer.
technology has produced the pocket-sized mobile phone. In this age as Dr
Ruchi said it is imp to keep patient in centre of efforts.
Great lessons on creativity and entrepreneurship
Dr Dass we are an NGO based out of ASSAM and doing a lot of work in this
space. We read that you got recognised by the President of India
recently.ICTs are altering the relationship and balance of power between
patients and providers, leading to more empowered consumers and enhanced
self, home and community care capabilities. Perhaps the greatest change in
the patient-provider relationship will be brought about by the use of
internet by patients.
Great stuff. power of ideas does bring the change.
The interface between the pharmaceutical industry and the healthcare
industry is also being changed by ICT applications, with many opportunities
for cost savings and efficiency gains. The potential for e-commerce and
internet-based technologies to enhance drug marketing and distribution has
only just begun to be tapped, and the scope for further innovation is
enormous. .
The secret to learning as an entrepreneur is to mix equal parts of
inspiration and perspiration. Hard work without a vision is futile, while a
great idea without execution is similarly worthless.So great job!!
I agree with you
Dear Eduardo This is great thought.
As an effect of the ageing of the population in general, the number of
citizens with chronic diseases is increasing, especially among elderly
people throughout the Baltic Sea Region. This is a great challenge for both
the well-being of the citizens and the public health care systems. The
tools and services which contribute to eHealth provide better and more
efficient health care services for all.
We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives
and ultimately, the world. So we’re building here a clearinghouse that
offers free knowledge and inspiration from the world’s most inspired
thinkers, and also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and
each other.
Read an article on saving lives and saving money. Healthcare System broken
due to “perfect storm” of converging problems. Market dynamics and consumer
demand can save healthcare, not government control.
Yes transforming healthcare is not that easy. We require skills like they
are there in transformational change, patient safety, service improvement,
staff and public involvement, knowledge capture and communications.
Hi Anjan Great to see you here. Look forward to meet you soon in Delhi.
Let us be friends
I quite liked it. simple thoughts- well articulated.
The true meaning of Entrepreneurship
Agree. Dr Dass serves on several Advocacy and Advisory Boards in Health
Informatics, Telemedicine and eHealth associations including UN Commission,
Life-Saving Commodities for Women and Children, Washington DC,USA,
Commonwealth Connects Program, ICT4D- African, Asian, European, and
Caribbean member states.
We are now able to continue to work with organisations and individuals who
want to transform, innovate and improve for the benefit of patients, their
families and staff whilst at the same time recognising and meeting the
economic challenges the NHS faces.
Entrepreneurs must exhibit excellent leadership and management skills.
Ruchi, you too work much like a conductor — orchestrating different parts
to ensure that they all come together like they should. In they are
providing entrepreneurs with crucial lessons in leadership.
TED is a big thing
Very interesting. Crowdsourcing Healthcare…
Good show. As Gandhijis talisman says- Never forget the faces of the poor
and needy before you start a service.
I would one day want to make up to a TEDX or TEDMED event myself.
stumbled upon this. The TEDx program gives communities, organizations and
individuals the opportunity to stimulate dialogue through TED-like
experiences at the local level. very useful for people like us.
she knows her subject well.
Read a report by Zahra Kanji recently on MIT prajnopaya institute. Students
are encouraged to engage in the study of the Theravada, Mahayana, and
Vajrayana (Triyana) schools. The Institute continues to grow under the
chief patronage of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, along with the heads of the
other Tibetan Buddhist lineages, and provides a healthy environment for
spiritual dialogue.
Both medicine and educational systems are mired in historical tradition. I
believe that both fall significantly short of their potentials. Medicine
needs to address preventive care and fitness, as well as treating diseases
more efficiently and cheaper. Education needs to aim for creating an
atmosphere where students that do well because of their desire to learn and
enthusiastic well-qualified teachers motivate them.
India has a burgeoning burden of diseases coupled with aging
She is a successful entrepreneur and TED celebrates new ideas and
approaches. I appreciate.
Great Video. Great Views. I think you will certainly find value in it as it
incorporates some of the best ideas of the 21st century.
Great Stuff. Thanks for sharing it here. Nice to see TED in India now.
Yes
sure she watched the legendary “Sir Ken Robinson” speech in TED. but silly
to do an exact copy of that girl in the class and project herself as that
girl.. Worst..
Evangelist? Lol some little snitch with a fake accent and ‘papas’ money.
It’s such a shame that TED allows people like this to associate with its
name.
