What would it look like if, as a healthcare system, we were able to draw from data points from real experiences of real people around the world? What if we could magnify the power of existing medical research methods by incorporating a broader range of people, experiences, and perspectives, including those of practicing clinicians? One of the biggest challenges we face is bridging the gap between clinical research and clinical practice. The concept of the learning health system is not one magical platform that offers to solve this problem, but rather it is a way of thinking, of collaborating, and of experiencing the world that has the potential to radically transform healthcare. Join us in our conversation with Josh Rubin, program officer for learning health system initiatives at the University of Michigan Medical School’s first-in-the-nation Department of Learning Health Sciences, president and CEO of the Learning Health Community, and executive director of the Joseph H. Kanter Family Foundation. James Laskin, DPT also joins in on the conversation to provide the perspective of both a clinical research and a practicing clinician.
