Driving Convergence

Welcome to the Convergence Interactive Research Map!

This map will show how convergence research addresses major drivers for transitions in healthcare. When the map is loaded with your project and interests, it offers you and the convergence community lots of benefits like:

  • Showing you the projects, disciplines, persons, and topics related to yours to contact or be inspired by.
  • Offer you a framework to communicate your research inside and outside the convergence.
  • Having an overview of our convergence community research strengths and opportunities for future research.

We need your input to make the map come alive, so please take 3 minutes to complete this questionnaire.

You can also download the white paper on Convergence Health Transitions, which provides a concise overview of transition theory and examples from the Convergence Health & Technology cluster.

Select connected Convergence cluster:
Scarcity
The driver scarity is related to rising life expectance, rising chronic diseases, rising mental care need, rising medication costs and rising demand for caretakers. Indicate the fit of your research to this transition driver:
Inequality​
The driver inequality is related to growing SEP disparity (education, income, social network), growing healthy environment disparity, growing lifestyle disparity, growing care reach disparity and growing care accessibility disparity. Indicate the fit of your research to this transition driver:
Glocal​ Health Risks​
The driver glocal health risks is related to climate change effects on health/ planetary health, rising risks for weather-related disasters, rising risks for air-pollution and water resources and rising risks for pandemics. Indicate the fit of your research to this transition driver:
Emerging​ Science​
The driver emerging science is related to AI development, disease modelling, precision medicine, tissue engineering, molecular/cellular innovation and value-based care. Indicate the fit of your research to this transition driver:
