ICLのGlobal Health Innovations Certificateを取得しました

 2022年夏過ぎに開始したインペリアル・カレッジ・ロンドン(ICL)、Matthew Harris教授のグローバル・ヘルス・イノベーションの科目履修を修了しました。標準修了期間は3ヶ月のクラスで、3クールの受講でした。昨年夏にロンドンのサウス・ケンジントン地区(ハロッズ本店から徒歩圏内)にあるICLを訪れましたが、とても近代的な校舎でした。


Healthcare Innovation: What Does Success Look Like and How to Achieve It?
【About this Course】

This course focuses on the factors involved in the adoption of innovation - features, organizations, country of origin, cognitive, normative and affective aspects, change agents. Using real-world health innovations, you'll assess what impacts their scale ability to new contexts, how organizational and human characteristics affect adoption, to what extent diffusion of an innovation is influenced by unconscious bias. You'll also delve into the process of adopting an innovation within a clinical setting and why it's so important to know who your 'change agents' are. As started in the second course of this specialization, Healthcare Entrepreneurship: Taking Ideas to Market, you'll revisit the skill of pitching, exploring why and how to adapt pitches depending on your audience. 

Taught by: Dr Matthew Harris, School of Public Health, by Imperial College London
