The future is Digital and we will all be living longer. A combination, that will transform the way we live. The transformation is already under way….thru digital media, banking, ticketing, communication…even grocery shopping thru e-commerce is changing.

Digital health and in extension, digital empowered life is taking centre stage and a long list of new processes, new products, new skills for people is rapidly become an emerging requirement.

These “new” solutions require a inter disciplinary approach, and at a very granular level require convergence of health care with design, engineering and human centricity.

Millions of health-related data points are already being generated every day, from information collected by our personal devices, doctor’s office visits to public health data collection about disease prevalence and treatment outcomes.

In addition several non traditional health care determinants and facilities that affect a person’s health like home, work place, social locations and almost every where a person spends time are also emerging as the new frontiers of health care, where every step of human life can potentially be monitored, measured, modified for a healthy and happy life.

The emergence of (Artificial Intelligence)  AI + (Intelligent Automation) IA- driven new ecosystem will offer unprecedented insights by integrating diverse layers of human data—electronic health records, imaging, wearable biosensors, genomics, proteomics, microbiome information, social determinants of health, and environmental exposures.

Professionals trained in managing this complex data led ecosystem are absolutely essential to delivering comprehensive, continuous, contextualised, convergent, person cantered, transformative health care and systems. They need to understand both the potential benefits and limitations of these methods to minimize the possibility that new technologies will be implemented in a manner that will ultimately lead to equitable and universal health care, well being leading to long life.

Despite this seismic shift, already happening, there is a critical gap of relevant, necessary skills at all levels to realise the promise of digital health to a practical reality.

Malla Reddy Vishwavidyapeeth, part of the Malla Reddy academic ecosystem, with existing hospitals, medical, dental, nursing, allied health, engineering, business, agriculture… schools, recognised this need and has started India’s first School of Digital Health, offering a wide variety of future ready academic programs, backed by a strong, innovative, cutting edge, research ecosystem.
