Webinar to provide insight into mobile diagnostics
BBI Solutions’ patented Novarum technology makes a smartphone into a diagnostic test reader, allowing users to read and share the results of rapid tests from the point of care.
Their technology can connect patients and doctors, field workers, lab researchers and primary care clinicians to specialist practices as part of a mobile eco-system.
Novarum holds patents in Europe, the US, China, Japan and Russia and BBI is also ISO 13485:2016 certified for Medical Device Quality Management Systems.
The technology can support an infectious disease diagnosis, tracking and epidemiology. Accuracy, connectivity and ease of use makes it invaluable for medical, veterinary, defence, agricultural and environmental testing.
Dr Neil Polwart, BBI head of mobile, has over a decade of experience in the development and delivery of diagnostic technologies within mobile health (mHealth). Having studied chemistry with polymers and advanced materials, he began a career with the Ministry of Defence research arm DERA working on biosensor technology before undertaking a PhD modifying diamond surfaces for sensing applications. Following this, Polwart founded a business detecting Legionella bacteria in water, which went on to become one of BBI's customers.
Since the acquisition of Novarum by BBI in 2016, Polwart has had overarching responsibility for all things mobile at BBI Group.
For many healthcare organisations, mobile technology provides an opportunity to revolutionise patient care. The innovative platform also has exciting applications in human clinical, industrial, veterinary and food safety sectors.
Dr Neil Polwart, head of mobile at BBI Solutions, will be delivering a free webinar on building mobile solutions to support the diagnostic journey, where he will explore how BBI’s Novarum smartphone diagnostic platform is adding value to manufacturers, payers, clinicians and patients to support point of care testing.
The webinar, ‘The Mobile Diagnostic Journey’, will take place on Wednesday 21st October, 2:30pm – 3:30pm BST.
