5. Motivation and health behavior change
In the Motivation and Health Behavior Change session at HXR, you’ll learn from experts in the field about theory-backed and evidence-based approaches to facilitating motivation for positive health behaviors in a variety of contexts from interpersonal (coaching and clinical encounters) to commercial applications (digital services, websites & apps) to large-scale multi-modal public health campaigns.
4. VR & wearable sensors
Wearables, sensors, and tech-enabled devices continue to make an impact in these innovative times in health. They have led to a more accurate real-time data collection, allowing health professionals to better understand individual’s lifestyles and behaviors. We will hear from some of the most innovative companies in the field and get a behind-the-scene on how they developed their technology, which makes them stand out from the crowd.
3. Healthcare Jeopardy
You heard that correctly. A panel disguised as a game show. Jeopardy meets the Price Is Right. You have to see it to believe it.
