Editor's Note

A NOTE FROM OUR EDITOR

The first thing I was taught in the Biomedical Writing Master ’ s program was “first, know your audience ” . It came up time and again, because if you do not know to whom you are trying to communicate information, how can you be an effective communicator? Our audience is you! You come from all walks of life, all over the world, and from many different cultural backgrounds. You might hold a degree in healthcare or engineering, or not; you might be 16 or 60, a potential investor, or an avid learner. We can all be innovators, disrupters, and influencers. In this issue, I have an article discussing effective communication to innovators; it’ s not as simple as it sounds, I have found. We also feature a book review on Deep Learning and its application to healthcare by a talented scientist who had an abstract at Advancing Healthcare Innovation Summit 2021. BlogWatch author Maria Ashton has found for us some very compelling content to browse through; you might find yourself in a wormhole of entertainment. In addition, we have an up-to-the minute overview of precision medicine and where the future lies by Nina Flanagan. As always, don ’t forget to register (free) for AHIS2022! I’d love to see you there. This issue contains information about the vendors, exhibits and presentations you can expect to see, and the workshops we will be running.

I would really like to get to know you, our audience, better! If you ’d like to comment on the issue, or ask about contributing to IE, drop me an email at InnovationExpresseditor@gmail.com, or connect with me and Innovation Express on LinkedIn
