Why are public health experts looking for technologists?

Join us for a behind-the-scenes conversation with Dr. Prabhdeep Kaur and Dr. Ganeshkumar, senior epidemiologists at the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and two of India‘s leading public health minds. With decades of experience running large-scale health programs, they’ll share candid insights into the software, systems, and design choices that drive (or derail) real-world outcomes. We‘ll also dive into a question more technologists are starting to ask: Is there an exciting career in public health for people like us?

Whether you‘re curious about impact, looking beyond big tech, or already working at the intersection of design and health, this conversation will spark new ideas about where your skills can truly make a difference.
