Path of The Clinician Engineer

I've spent the vast majority of my career training to become a pharmacist, and subsequently, an informaticist. However, in the last 6 years - especially the last 2 - my curiosities have led me down very different, technical paths that bridge the healthcare and technology industries. During this time, I've also struggled to put into words what exactly I was training to become, but also, what I wish I would have done differently knowing what I know now.

In this article, I'd like to very briefly explore my current, and very rudimentary, ideation of what I'd like OpenClinTech to become: the central hub for training clinicians that want to be at the forefront of developing technology solutions that solve complex healthcare problems. The Clinician Engineer.
