Alex Frangi & Lucy Godson at Hear Me Out - Pint of Science UK
Alex Frangi & Lucy Godson at Hear Me Out - Pint of Science UK, 19 May 2021.
Hear ye hear ye! People are as unique as their music tastes, and we’re increasingly using bespoke healthcare rather than one-size approaches. How has this led to hearing aid tech being developed to improve the lives of individuals with hearing loss? After the past year, it might feel like people only exist in the virtual world, but could we test new medicines on virtual patients instead of humans? Join researchers from the University of Leeds who will outline the ways in which technology is being used to advance healthcare and discuss the role it may play in the future. .

2017 Sheffield Festival of Science & Engineering
Sheffield Festival of Science, April 2017.
In April 2017 CISTIB visited The Sheffield College and The Oak Tree High School as part of the Sheffield Festival of Science & Engineering. Students had the opportunity to listen to interesting talks about "Technologies That Will Transform Healthcare in the Next 10 Years" and to try out different hands-on demonstrations related to virtual reality in surgery and flow simulation in aneurysms.
