After the success of the P4 Digital Healthcare convention in 2010, Highlands and Islands Enterprise offers the opportunity to further explore the rapidly evolving field of P4 digital healthcare.

The term ‘P4’ is being adopted in the life sciences and digital healthcare sectors to describe the changing healthcare landscape as it becomes more Predictive, Preventative, Personalised and Participatory.

P4 Digital: The future of healthcare conference, taking place at the Centre for Health Science in Inverness, will be held on 10 and 11 May 2011.  The theme of the event will be ‘exploring and connecting’.
