Over 21 years, mediaX programs identified serious questions that brought academic and business researchers together for conversations, proofs-of-concepts and exploratory research. In this same spirit, we invite YOU to consider a new set of questions, refine and explore them, and – importantly – share what you’re working on to create a better future for all. We can do more together than any can do alone. Learn more and join our discussion here... https://mediax.stanford.edu/research/onward/

The mediaX webinar series “Thinking Tools for Wicked Problems” continues with mediaX Distinguished Visiting Scholar and CEO of Futuro Health Van Ton-Quinlivan. Health care is a prime example of one of the wicked problems faced in education. Even after a training need is identified, it takes time to achieve agreement across stakeholders to identify the curriculum requirements and find resources to satisfy them. An emergent need can become critical in the time it takes to create and roll out a new training program. In the current pandemic context, this is especially true for licensed health care workers.

From the mediaX webinar series “Thinking Tools for Wicked Problems”, mediaX Distinguished Visiting Scholar and CEO of EP3 Foundation Marsali Hancock and Jack Lewin, MD, Principal and Founder of Lewin and Associates LLC of New York City, and Chairman of the National Coalition on Health (NCHC) of Washington DC look at how the COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly besieged a largely unprepared world, bringing unprecedented change to social, economic and public health structures. At the core of strategies along each dimension of this challenge is the need for accurate population-scale testing. It seems straightforward, but there are many hurdles.
