SocialTech Lab develops Portable Health Clinic system technologies

Portable health clinic systems have the potential to revolutionize healthcare delivery in remote and underserved areas of the world. At the forefront of this innovation is the Social Tech Lab, which is developing core technology for portable health clinics that can be easily transported and set up in any location. These clinics are being piloted in various countries in Asia and Africa, including Bangladesh, India, Thailand, Pakistan, Nepal, Cambodia, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Liberia. By bringing healthcare services to communities that lack access to traditional medical facilities, portable health clinics can significantly improve health outcomes and quality of life for people in these regions. The Social Tech Lab’s commitment to developing and piloting this technology in multiple countries demonstrates its dedication to improving global health equity and providing healthcare access to all.

Transformation of Healthcare Data

This research focuses on converting analog health records into standardized and digitized formats to create unified Electronic Health Records (EHR). By developing scalable methods to digitize handwritten or paper-based medical data, this work aims to enable easier storage, retrieval, and analysis of patient information.

Visualization of Healthcare Data

This research explores effective methods to visually represent healthcare data, enabling medical professionals and policymakers to quickly interpret complex health trends and make informed decisions for early intervention and improved care delivery.

Personalization of Triage

This study uses explainable AI to analyze health checkup data from the Portable Health Clinic system, aiming to identify individual risk factors and support personalized triage decisions based on each patient's unique health profile. It seeks to make AI-driven decisions more transparent and reliable.
