Keeping medical device designs relevant in a big data world migrating to outcomes-driven payment models
Last week I presented the closing keynote at the Medical Design& Manufacturing (MD&M) West Conference& Exhibition in Los Angeles. MD&M has always been about what ’s next in medical device design and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. While still being primarily focused on hardware, many smart device manufacturers came out to MD&M looking for advice on next generation architecture and thinking so that they could point their product roadmaps in the right direction.

Why do Avon sales reps selling makeup deserve better usability than hospital physicians saving lives?
I was watching the Super Bowl tonight and lost interest after Bruno Mars ’ very nice halftime concert so I started picking up some “Read it Later” articles I saved late last year; one specifically caught my eye.
