YOUNG Medical Delta Symposium - Designing with Diversity: A dialogue on the benefits and challenges of inclusive design of technological medical innovations

The Young Medical Delta Symposium 2022 will take place in Rotterdam on April 13! The subject is Designing with Diversity: a dialogue on the benefits and challenges of inclusive design in MedTech innovations.

On Wednesday April 13, starting at 19h, researchers from the Medical Delta program Diagnostics 3.0: Dementia and Stroke and Leiden University's Law Department will each give a talk about different biases they encounter in MedTech design and research. They will present how they attempt to tackle the challenges these biases create and also discuss the difficulties that still remain.
