Secure funding (up to $10k) and support for your project with the Center for Digital Health's Incubator Program
The Center for Digital Health is committed to working on problems that lie at the intersection of health care, technology, and society. Through research and practice, we both lead and support initiatives to advance science, improve health care systems, and enhance patient and public engagement.
We identify important problems in health care and explore how traditional approaches can be disrupted, improved upon, or harmed by using digital data and platforms to explore solutions to these challenges.
At Penn Medicine, we are dedicated to discoveries that advance science, to outstanding patient care throughout the world, and to the education of physicians and scientists who carry on our legacy of excellence. While many health systems approach digital engagement as a separate silo with regards to strategy, we see it as an essential part of integrated care delivery.
Our work is funded by Penn Medicine, the University of Pennsylvania, and grants. Current grant funders include the National Institutes of Health, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Pennsylvania Department of Health, and the Penn Center for Precision Medicine.
The modular logo system featured on our website was inspired by Otto Neurath’s isotype systems where digits and everyday human lives are bound together with simple analogues. A human becomes a head; a head becomes a circle, a circle becomes a pattern of circles, revealing the information behind it. Many thanks to Jonatan Eriksson of Tsto for his work.
