Living online

“The new pupil” 1854 Thomas Brooks

The Institution of Engineering and Technology is leading an inquiry into how the rapidly increasing reliance on digital technology, accelerated by the pandemic, may have a long-term impact on our social and economic wellbeing.   A detailed prospectus is linked below

Living online: the long-term impact on wellbeing

The consultation closed on January 20th but, as we do with many IET titles, we maintain the project on the standing agenda of our Infotech colloquia and our 4 times monthly collaboration with the IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee; all online gatherings open to everyone.  You may communicate directly with Duncan Kenyon (duncankenyon@theiet.org) for additional information.

Hospitals Post-Covid

“The Special Surgical Auxiliary Hospital at the Star and Garter” 1918 John Hodgson Lobley

The Institute of Engineering Technology is responding to a UK government call for evidence to inform research into how the next 40 hospitals should be built in the United Kingdom.  The IET is keen to delve into specific elements of hospital design, including:

  • How can new hospital design make the most of advancements in technology and medical devices? For example, what is the role of devices and new technology in helping to monitor patients?
  • How can new hospitals enable more efficient models of inspection for safety and cleanliness?
  • How can air quality in hospitals be improved?

The complete query is linked below:

Call for evidence: Building hospitals in the post-Covid era

Public consultation closes on November 9th.   Send comments via email to nmoreira@theiet.org with “Call for evidence: Building hospitals in the post-Covid era” in the subject line.

Insofar as electrotechnologies in next generation US healthcare facilities are concerned — and how US stakeholders learn from leading practice discovery elsewhere in the world — we collaborate with the IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee  and the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. The IEEE is the world’s largest professional engineering society and the IET is its “closest relative” in the United Kingdom. 

We limit our interest to university-affiliated healthcare enterprises.

We maintain the IET best practice bibliography on the standing agenda of our Global online meetings.   We will also place this consultation on the agenda of our next Health teleconference.  See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.
