3/10/2018 2018 Design In Tech Report Medical schools are using design thinking Medical schools in the US that offer a formal program or classes that teach design thinking to medical students This list does not include universities 1. Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin where medical students took design thinking classes in schools outside of the 2. Kaiser Permanente School of Medicine (not yet opened) medical school. It also does not include health care professional schools. Example: 3. Mayo Clinic School of Medicine Stanford medical students who might take 4. The College of Osteopathic Medicine at Oklahoma State University design thinking classes at the d.school or Penn medical students taking design 5. The Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University classes in the architecture school. Also, this is not an inventory of academic 6. The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University medical centers or hospitals that have a 7. University of Michigan Medical School design group or team. Many of these 8. University of Virginia School of Medicine teams employ human centered design but do not necessarily teach medical students. 9. Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell In my experience, Design Thinking provides a platform for non-designers (myself included) - doctors, nurses and medical students - to work with designers. DT is a primer that provides us a shared language. Many of us who are in health care have already been practicing elements of DT (empathizing, prototyping, testing, etc.) but we just didn't know what to call it. I do not believe that DT is a step by step recipe. We teach our medical students to develop a design mindset and build their creative muscles. Design thinking helps us to reimagine a better future state of health care and give us some more tools in how to get there. —Bon Ku, MD, MPP Source: @bonku 2018 Design In Tech Report | Technology × Business × Design 17 / 90 http://jmmbp001.local:5757/?ckcachecontrol=1520689902#16 17/90
