Our team members also engage with and impact the wider community: Here we focus on committee member Ruth Norris (Centre for Health Informatics) who co-leads the Manchester One HealthTech Hub. One HealthTech is a global, volunteer-led, grassroots community that supports and promotes under-represented groups to be future leaders in health innovation, to inspire, celebrate, enable and champion inclusivity and diversity. The OHT community includes different sectors, countries and backgrounds, health and care providers, start-ups, corporates, academics and charities. Ruth has co-led the Manchester hub for 2 years, curating and leading events and creating innovations to improve and enhance science and health services through inclusion. You can read more about their most recent event on AI and health equalities here. If you’d would like to get involved and know more about the OHT click here .
