Backing the healthtech that changes lives
Listen
About this episode
When the right technology reaches the right patient, lives change. In this episode of NICE Talks, we hear directly from people whose lives have been transformed by NICE-recommended healthtech, including a hybrid closed loop system for type 1 diabetes, an implantable cardiac monitor to detect atrial fibrillation following a stroke, and a rapid genetic test that protects newborns from hearing loss caused by a common antibiotic.
NICE's chief executive, Jonathan Benger, also shares our plans to support faster, fairer healthtech adoption across the NHS.
