Sparks! Forum Graphic Facilitation 2nd edition

The theme for the second edition of the Sparks! Forum was the Future Technology for Health. CERN has actively pursued medical applications of its technologies since as far back as the 1970s. The tools of experimental particle physics are ubiquitous in hospitals and biomedical research. However, Sparks! goes beyond what we do here at CERN. Spanning the domains of prevention, diagnosis and treatment, the topics for this edition of Sparks! will spark new questions about the links between medical technologies and fundamental science, globalisation, accessibility, trust, ethics and more. At this forum doctors, tech developers, economists, policymakers, ethicists, patient associations, medical researchers, humanitarian organisations, medical foundations, UN agencies, data specialists, climate modelers and AI developers gathered together discussing the above subjects. The graphics were created by Carlotta Cataldi and are from the opening and closing plenary session of the second edition of Sparks!
