Description
Forward, Better with Professor Hannah Fry brings a collective of industry pioneers together to discuss the secrets of a successful sustainability transformation._____
A Matter of Movement: The bridge between reality and its digital alternative is becoming ever shorter due to technological advances like digital twins – the virtual replica of a physical structure. As a former specialist in digital twins, Professor Jacqueline Alderson knows the potential of this technology in breaking new frontiers all too well.
And nowhere is this potential larger than in healthcare. By “cloning” the human form, medical professionals can make more personalized interventions and informed predictions about their patients’ health. The challenge is ensuring they do it in a way that is purposeful, transparent, and fair, which is where Alderson now directs her focus.
She defines her area of expertise as “the science of biomechanics and the governance of technology.” And so, in this episode of Forward, Better, Professor Hannah Fry seeks to understand the series of events that led her to this intersection. Listen to discover what it looks like when the promise of technology doesn’t match up with reality.
