Following keynotes from Dr. Ben Goldacre in 2013, Charles Sabine in 2012 and Professor Lord Winston in 2011, PhUSE again presents high-calibre speakers to talk about relevant topics for professions who are passionate about advancement of clinical information.
Dr. Pritpal Tamber is a "health explorer" and the Physician Editor of TEDMED 2013. He leads an extraordinary and eclectic group of thinkers and doers in the search for new ways to understand, create and value health, with a deep belief that the NHS needs to be radically reimagined. Pritpal is currently building an international movement to see health as more than just the absence of sickness so that its creation becomes the norm. At PhUSE, Pritpal will give insight into his view on the healthcare industry which he views as the only industry where most consumers don't really know or understand what they want.
