PMCRI hosted "V.I.D.E.O. for Health Communication: Video to Improve Discovery, Effectiveness, and Outcomes," a half-day symposium on videography and video tools to improve health and medical communication, in collaboration with Kevin Johnson, MD (Penn Medicine), and Rebecca Clark, PhD, MSN (Penn Nursing).
The goal of the symposium is to bring together the community at Penn using video for these purposes and to help improve clinician-focused and patient-centered messaging through video.
The great lineup of speakers presented over 3 sections: Meet, which introduced attendees to a subset of research projects underway using video for health and medical communication; Inspire, which featured speakers doing novel video work and enabled participants to learn about developing areas in video communication potentially outside their areas of expertise; and Learn, which gave participants practical and generalizable methods for utilization of video in communications.
