The Hospital of Tomorrow: Physical Design for a New Era
Presented by: School of Architecture and School of Business AdministrationThe hospital built today must anticipate the inevitable and dramatic transformations in the delivery of health care that will happen over the next several decades. What should the hospital’s physical environment look like in order to prevent obsolescence given the rapid change in medical services and patient care modalities? The answers will require interdisciplinary cooperation. This panel will bring together experts to present new models for the hospital of tomorrow.

The Hospital of Tomorrow: Erasing Unsustainable Sprawl

Presented by: School of Architecture
Over the past several decades, hospitals evolved into massive disconnected medical islands, often acquiring and clearing adjacent neighborhoods for parking and expansions, rather than following a growth plan to create medical districts as integrated parts of livable communities. This unsustainable sprawl is the antithesis of the healthy, walkable communities that public health experts advocate today. This panel will focus on how to plan, design and build the health care campus of the future – a campus that is integrated within the community and includes mixed-use, residential, and public spaces that yield better performing health care facilities that appeal to patients, families, medical staff, employees, and neighbors.

Recently enacted regulations have increased transparency in doctor-industry relations, reducing conflicts of interest and potential risk to patients. Within this new environment, the development of potentially lifesaving new drugs, devices, and therapeutic strategies continues to require careful and non-conflicted interaction between industry and clinicians. This distinguished panel of top industry executives and academic medicine thought leaders will address the challenge of building patient-centric partnerships, conducting clinical research, preserving U.S. eadership in therapeutics development, preserving U.S. research jobs, and — most importantly — maintaining a strong focus on patient health and
well-being amid this new regulatory landscape.
