In this episode, Doug Fairbanks, CEO of Advanced Scanners, discusses the impact of user experience on surgical-enabling technologies with the help of new features in robotics. Advanced Scanners is a deep-tech scanning company in Austin, Texas, and Doug has 20+ years of working at the intersection of technology, orthopedics, and commercialization.Doug starts by pointing out how a graphic user interface helped computing titans like Apple and Microsoft satisfy their users with understandable, easy-to-use features. He calls out the OR user experience in scanning procedures that require extra incisions to get information into a system. This convoluted process can be exhausting for patients and even result in prolonged procedures. What if systems were able to see patients the same way a physician does? Advanced Scanners believes the issue doesn't rely on the available technology itself, but on the equipped features they count on. A great feature like a computer vision system could increase the accuracy throughout a procedure and makes a big difference in usability for surgeons and patients.Listen to this episode and learn why surgical-enabling technologies can evolve by using user experience feedback and improve it in return!

Wow! What a year it has been. Just when you thought things couldn't get any crazier we find ourselves in a war in Europe, crazy energy and food prices and extreme high inflation rates in general. In an ideal world farms applying regenerative practises are more resilient, but as we saw with the story of Josh Heyneke, founder of Parc Carreg, farms can get into trouble very quickly when input prices spike (in this case organic grain from Ukraine to feed the ducks). It seems like Josh and his partner Abigail will make it through the winter and are building hard on their more resilient future, which will include climate neutral eggs!The most important storyHealthy soil equals healthy food equals healthy people is arguably the most important story we shared in 2022. We kicked off this new Nutrient Density in Food series unpacking this crucial piece of the puzzle (supported by the A Team Foundation who is looking to make investments and donations in the space).We interviewed Anne Biklé and David R Montgomery who not only co authored the study “Soil health and nutrient density: preliminary comparison of regenerative and conventional farming”, but also wrote the book What your food ate. if you haven't read it please do it asap and give it to anyone interested in health! Interviews with Fred Provenza and Zuzanna Zielińska really showed how strong this connection is. We look forward to continue this series in 2023.REQUEST: If you have people we should interview that are building companies in the food- from healthy soils- as medicine space, please let us know!Farmers' Philosophy Series and Video! There is so much more we can learn from the key decision makers of our time, farmers than soil health and this deserves time and space. Following the legends in the podcasting world, we couldn't stay behind :) and in November we recorded our first video interview.Together with regenerative farmer and pioneer Jeroen Klompe we sat down and took time to go deep. We covered a lot of ground while really enjoying the process. Let us know in the comments what you think! Going deeperThe video episode wasn't the only place where we went deeper.

This is episode #22 of the podcast and it's Thursday, the 28th of July, 2022. My guest today is Dr. Carlos Velasco, associate professor in the Department of Marketing, BI Norwegian Business School (Norway), and the co-founded of the Centre for Multisensory Marketing. Carlos received his D.Phil. in Experimental Psychology from Oxford University, after which he worked in a number of postdoctoral and consulting projects in Europe, Asia, and North and South America. His work is situated at the intersection of Psychology, Marketing, and Human–Computer Interaction, and focuses on understanding, and capitalizing on our multisensory experiences and their guiding principles. He wrote the book "Multisensory experiences: Where the senses meet technology" (2020, Oxford University Press). Carlos has worked with a number of companies from around the world on topics such as multisensory experiences, food and drink, branding, and consumer research. We started the interview with the broad topic of digital sensory-enabling technologies — and elaborated on the belief that, in the future, digital environments will most likely engage more of the senses and become more interconnected with the real world. But this a very challenging problem, and this most likely will involve a wide range of collaborative efforts across many disciplines. We then moved to the reality-virtuality continuum - a framework for classifying the wide range of immersive technologies available today — and discussed the main factors that drive the degree of immersion and presence in digital spaces. The second part of the interview covered technology where we focused in particular on how to improve eating experiences in rather specific places, like space. Of course, besides a short debate on the impact technology will have on society in the next 10-20 years, we concluded the show with a dialogue on the ethical implications of such technologies. Here is the show.Show Notes:- Digital sensory-enabling technologies - Are we satisfied with the current immersive digital sensory experiences?- A wide inter-disciplinary approach to the integration of the different senses that need to be stimulated during digital consumer experiences? And challenges for researchers working at the intersection of these areas- The reality-virtuality continuum model offers a framework for classifying the wide range of immersive technologies available today- Individual differences in perception in sensory marketing- The role does language play in transducing between/ among the various senses- Eating experiences in space- The role of technology in the next 10-20 years in reviving the ‘felt consumer experience'- Ethical implications of  digital sensory-enabling technologies Relevant book:Velasco, Carlos, and Marianna Obrist.

Welcome to the first episode of our Health Systems Science series! This episode is an overview of what Health Systems Science is and why it is important.  Today’s guest is Dr. Maya Hammoud. Maya is a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Professor of Learning Health Sciences at the University of Michigan Medical School. She is the Associate Chair for E-Learning and Enabling Technologies, Chair of the Center for Education, and Clerkship Director for Obstetrics and Gynecology. She serves on the Medical School Executive Committee and is Assistant Director for Education, Global Reach at the Medical School. Dr. Hammoud currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Association of Professors of Gynecology and Obstetrics (APGO) as the Secretary-Treasurer and she is APGO’s President-Elect. Her research interests are in the field of medical education, as well as in women's health with a focus on cultural competence. She serves as a reviewer for many peer-reviewed journals and she is currently on the Editorial Board for the International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics. Questions and topics covered in this episode include: Why HSS is important and has become more important with COVID-19 Why students need to be taught HSS during medical school What is systems-based thinking How HSS affects practicing physicians With support from Elsevier, and produced in collaboration with the American Medical Association, the HSS series seeks to broaden students’ understanding of the nature of medicine, medical education, and what separates them from other human endeavors. Medicine is not a “pure science,” a kind of “applied biology.” Rather, it is fundamentally an art that uses science. As a discipline, Health Systems Science considers those ideas and concepts which are integral to medicine as a profession but don’t fall under the domain of the clinical or basic sciences. The National Board of Medical Examiners includes HSS topics in its USMLE Content Outline and even offers a dedicated Health Systems Science subject examination. Each episode of this series will include on-the-go learning with practice exam questions explained by expert guests.  This series is sponsored by Panacea Financial: Banking Built for Doctors, by Doctors. ITB and Panacea share a common goal which is to make med school better. Panacea Financial is designed to handle the unique situation of medical students. We hope you will check them out to see how they can make your life easier.

SAP recently produced a fascinating new whitepaper (seriously!) on enabling technologies for Industry 4.0 (called SAP Enabling Technologies for Industry 4.Now). Given the very close alignment between Industry 4.0 and the digitisation of Supply Chain, I thought I'd invite someone on the podcast to talk about this.I reached out to my old friend and colleague Elvira Wallis (@ElviraWallis on Twitter), Global Head of IoT at SAP, to ask her to come on the podcast, and she graciously agreed. We had a great chat about the enabling technologies (chiefly IoT and Edge Computing), trains, and swimming!!!We had fun chatting about this. I hope you enjoy it too.If you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to leave me a voice message over on my SpeakPipe page or just send it to me as a direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn. Audio messages will get played (unless you specifically ask me not to).For more information, do check out the 2020 global research study "How to drive agility and productivity in Manufacturing with Industry 4.0"And if you want to know more about any of SAP's Digital Supply Chain solutions, head on over to www.sap.com/digitalsupplychain and if you liked this show, please don't forget to rate and/or review it. It makes a big difference to help new people discover it. Thanks.And remember, stay healthy, stay safe, stay sane!

And how will teacher training programs need to evolve to accommodate this new role? • What will it mean to own your own data? How will taking ownership of data change how you interact online in the future? • As new technologies are developed, which will play a larger role in online education and its governance, how will laws and regulations need to evolve to address them? Featured Guest Alex Kaplan: Biography I am passionate about the power of education to transform lives and help people realize their full potential. I believe the application of artificial intelligence, analytics and other advanced technologies are essential tools to facilitate personalized learning at scale. My career has been spent thinking about and working on the application of advanced technologies to support education institutions and lifelong learning. As a serial technology entrepreneur and creator of eco-systems to support transformative education technology businesses, I have seen it all and what works and does not work. In my various roles as CEO, leader of sales and professional services organizations, and product development teams I have come to value those activities that make a real difference when they are in the hands of teachers, professors and students . I have been fortunate to work with the leading firms in the field, like Apple and Pearson, to think about and implement transformative programs. I also enjoy the opportunity to connect with the next generation of ed tech leaders on the role advanced technologies will play in the transformation of education. Sessions I have participated in at Harvard University, Columbia University and many other conferences have been engaging and interesting. I am on a continual quest to learn more about technology and education, and work with others that share a similar passion   About Project Ungoverned? Project Ungoverned? takes place within the Bosch Alumni Network – a network which consists of people who’ve been supported in one way or another by the Robert Bosch Stiftung. The network is coordinated by the International Alumni Center – iac Berlin, a think and do tank for alumni communities with social impact.
