10AM-11AM: Design Better, Feel Better: How UX is Improving the Patient Experience in Healthcare
Hosted by: SeedHIT
There are a lot of opportunities to improve user experience in healthcare. This session will provide insights on the current state of UX in healthcare and the challenges surrounding compliance, operations and workflows inside and outside the traditional walls of healthcare.

Engineered and life science companies continue to be challenging to fund and grow. With the “Clean-Tech” bubble bursting and “Big Pharma” downsizing, a lot of collateral damage has been done to the engineered and life science space. Product development and qualification cycles are long and switching costs may be significant. The bottom line is that the better mouse trap does not always win in the marketplace. A compelling economic or performance advantage (preferably both) must be present for a new technology to win. Patient investors and the right strategic partners are critical for success. Several companies in this space will be presenting as well as a representative from The Office of Technology Transfer at Caltech.
Speakers:
- Dr. Michael A. Giardello, President, CEO and CTO at Materia, Inc.
- Dr. Patrick Sislian, Co-founder and CEO at Deton Corp
- Dr. Hannah Dvorak-Carbone, Associate Director, Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) at Caltech

There’s a zipline coming to the popular summer spot of Venice Beach, CA.
The zipline will be operational during a trial three month period.
The one minute(actually 40 seconds) zipline trip will cost $20.
Some details on what has been reported:
The 750-foot zip line would zoom people between the bike path and the boardwalk near the skate park and Windward Plaza, just before the basketball courts
A temporary three-month permit to Canadian-based Greenheart Conservation Company to install the ride, which is expected to generate about $150,000 during the pilot period. Two-thirds of those revenues would be allocated to improving Venice Beach facilities, such as restrooms and trash bins. The zip-line could be up-and-running by July 1.
Greenheart estimates the ride will attract between 500 and 1,000 people every day. Rides would cost $20 for the approximate 40-second ride. The hours of operation would be from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. for children’s educational programs and from 11 a.m. to sunset for the general public.
Here’s the original notice of hearing:
More details as they become available.
