more sustainable (e.g., maintenence),
long-term supported (e.g., funding), and
translatable to the clinic (e.g, quality standards).
Discussed trends and the future of Surgical Technologies on how to quickly adopt the latest technologies while still complying with relevant quality standards.
How can we address a balance between algorithm development and tool development?
How to foster community engagement with developers, academics, clinitians, and industry professionals?
Do we require additional training to accelerate clinical translation?
Participants of the workshop were exposed to leading authors of state-of-the-art open-source platforms for Surgical Technologies
Created a forum, drafted a white-paper and currently brainstorming plans to organise similar events.
Created GitHub organisation to host open source event, discussions, slides and white paper.
