Topic: When
Technology Meets Medicine
Abstract:
Healthcare is one of the most pressing challenges facing the United
States today. While evolving IT technology seems a promising
solution for improving healthcare, the typical
“technology-look-for-application” (TLA) approach rarely leads to fruitful
results. To effectively translate advances in technology into
clinical benefits, a deeper understanding of unmet clinical needs is
vital. This presentation will cover the critical issues in the
treatment of cardiovascular diseases, such as aortic stenosis
(AS), heart failure (HF) and chronic total occlusions (CTO), and how the
electro-optics and MEMS technology could contribute to the current
paradigm.
Speaker Bio:
Carson Chen (陳彥宇博士) received BS and
PhD degrees in EE from NTU, where he concentrated on electro-optics and
medical electronics. In 2004, he developed advanced high-speed
3D microscopy as a visiting scientist at MIT. From 2007 to
2009, he continued to work on microscopy innovation and gained solid bio
lab experience as a postdoctoral scholar at Caltech. In 2009,
Dr. Chen was named a Stanford-Taiwan Biomedical Fellow by the ROC
government to learn the ropes of medtech
startups in Silicon Valley. A current visiting scholar
at Stanford, he actively pursues entrepreneurial opportunities in imaging
technology and telemedicine.
