The UX Revolution in Medicine Report

Medicine is one of the very few areas outside the military where UX can truly make a ‘life-or-death’ difference.

The experts who participated in our recent debate on the topic introduced breakthrough insights of freshness and clarity.

Most striking is the complex and multidimensional nature of UX in medicine: from the laboratory through the point of care to the day-to-day patient/consumer, and embracing both healthcare and life sciences.

• Hakim Yadi Ph.D. OBE of Closed Loop Medicine: “It’s about the logistics of care between the physician, the drug, and the patient, and enabling the patient to have a meaningful conversation with their physician about their medication regimen.”
• Eddie Abrams of Big Hat Biosciences: “The laboratory of the future is going to look a lot different … A next-generation, data-driven science program fundamentally operates differently from a more traditional legacy laboratory.”
• David Pardoe of Evotec: “The number of data scientists doesn’t actually reflect the tools you’ve got or the amount of data you’ve got to exploit.”
• Noel O’Kelly of Spirit Health: “We have lots of skepticism among clinicians about new technologies. They say, ‘Why change the way we do it? I don’t like technology. It’s all about a relationship’.”
• Andy Baynes of GT LifeScience: “How do you unblock the end healthcare customer from being the bottleneck of a scenario where we’re designing, testing, and delivering drugs on 12-month cycles rather than seven-year cycles?”
