  10. Internet2 Focus Areas • Advanced Network Infrastructure • Middleware • Engineering • Advanced Applications • Partnerships

  11. Advanced Applicationshttp://apps.internet2.edu/ • Distributed computation • Virtual laboratories • Digital libraries • Distributed learning • Digital video • Tele-immersion • All of the above in combination

  12. Why Internet2 • The student who will enter medical school in 5-10 years can absorb multiple channels of information Dynamic charts Second screen lecture Communal note taking messaging

  13. Healthcare in the Information Age

  14. The scope of the Internet2 Health Science Workgroup includes clinical practice, medical and related biological research, education, and medical awareness in the public.

  15. Roadmap • Networking Health:Prescriptions for the Internet • National Research Council Report • Current and future Internet • Released 24 February 2000 • National Academy Press • ISBN 0-309-06843-6

  16. Common Ground • Improve operations, decrease costs, advance science, promote health awareness, educate, and influence public policy. • Multidisciplinary centers of learning, research, and clinical affairs. • Cyberinfrastructure

  17. Consensus • More new information will be created in the next year than throughout our entire history! • Instantaneous global collaboration is the next killer application • Medical science will not be possible without advanced computing solutions • R&D will rely increasingly on academic/industry partnerships 1 03/19/03

  18. Physicians Participate in Internet2 • Extends the opportunities • TeleHealth • National Tumor Board • Clinical Skills and Assessment (AAMC partnerships) • Focus on distributed data sharing • Electronic Health Record • Presence and Integrated Communications (VOIP, RFID) • Advanced visualization • Computer Assisted Diagnosis • Computer Assisted Surgery (Minimally invasive surgery) • Collaboration • Second Opinion Networks • Learning Technology (Distance Education) • Knowledge Management (Pharmacy benefits)

  19.

  28. “In the modern era every century has had its major advance that has brought medical science another giant step forward...What will the major advance of the 21st century be?I am convinced that the medical revolution of our children’s lifetime’s lifetimes will be the application of Information technology to health care.” Secretary Tommy Thompson, 21 March 2003

  29. Challenges to the Health Science Community “ 90% of data collected today will never be seen by a human eye. This is everyone's problem. We must manage a growing amount of data to secure knowledge for the future.” -Michael Marron, NIH “Molecular imaging will represent a critical redefinition of how physicians practice, requiring MASSIVE changes in how images are obtained, stored and accessed.” -Dr. Greg Mogel, USC

  30. Inter-disciplinary Partnerships Catalyse New Uses • Direct visualizations • Data collection/integration • Data mining • Device intercommunication • Haptic immersion • Augmented dexterity • Advanced sensors • Wireless data collection • Economic models for reimbursement realities Image courtesy of: Dr. Christopher Johnson, Director of the SCI Institute 1
