Stella is the Chief Digital Officer (and Acting Executive Director Allied Health) for the Canterbury DHB and West Coast DHB.  In this interview we talk about Stella's career and what she is involved in relating to technology and the health sector.  What will a ward of the future look like?  What will 'big data' mean for health care?  We explore these and other questions in this interview.

This interview is released in the lead up to Techweek '18 and is part of a focus on technology and the role it plays in our lives.  The first interview on this topic was Professor Rob Lindemann on Virtual Reality, Peter Beggs on technology in Antarctica and next week will be David Carter on Canterbury Tech.
