How do we ensure the nexus of technology, common sense and wellbeing to target today's challenges of an ageing population, chronic illness, mental health, loneliness and isolation? How do we spend health money better and more intelligently? When it comes to increasingly complex diagnostics what's the best way to the most positive outcomes? What about getting less ill in the first place? 

This podcast interviews five individuals. Interestingly, three of the five are qualified doctors all of whom chose to give up clinical practice 

The five are: Professor Karol Sikora, Chief Medical Officer at Rutherford Health and formerly an NHS and consultant;  Dr Ceri Morgan, head of late stage portfolio at Oxford Science Enterprises; Dr Nicholas Moore, Managing Director for Biopharma at Stifel; Matthew Taylor, head of the NHS Confederation and Tom Hockaday, one of the country's experts in university tech transfer.  

Few require telling we are living in a strange and unsettling time. A time when health is at the forefront of all our minds.
