There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Many healthcare challenges are interdisciplinary, requiring clinical, design and engineering expertise to develop appropriate solutions. Collaboration between clinicians and technical professionals is key to developing these solutions, and yet opportunities for improving cross-disciplinary communication have often been limited.
To address this, Forge and the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation will co-host the next Digital Health Bootcamp on effective communication between clinicians, engineers and designers. Key takeaways will include how to 1) ask the right questions and evaluate information, 2) transition from a clinical problem to the development of design criteria in a solution, and 3) balance clinical and technical considerations throughout the design process. The workshop will be very interactive, with case studies and class discussion. Breakfast will be provided.
