Three details:

  1. The innovation hub will focus on finding new treatments for a wide range of children’s health issues, such as childhood cancer, genetic disorders, health IT and pharmaceuticals, said Kurt Newman, MD, president and CEO of Washington, D.C.-based Children’s National Hospital.
  2. “These are jobs in science and research that typically would not be in Washington, D.C.,” Dr. Newman said.
  3. The innovation hub will eventually be more than one million square feet of research space. The campus will also boast facilities from Johnson & Johnson and Blacksburg-based Virginia Tech.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
