What Healthcare Needs is Systems Engineering: Dr. John D. Evans
Speaker(s):
Dr. John D. Evans, Corporate Vice President of Business Innovation, Lockheed Martin
Published:
May 20, 2011 Dr. John D. Evans suggests, "no one has ever really designed the Intensive Care Unit...Nobody has sat down with a clean sheet of paper and said, 'This is our mission.'" What the Intensive Care Unit, and the healthcare market in general, needs, he says, is for innovators to create efficient designs not just for individual technologies but for the whole system. He shares his thoughts about the importance of leveraging systems engineering in the healthcare sector at the 2011 GSB Healthcare Summit.
