Digital Health Week 2026
Digital Health Week is an opportunity for anyone interested in digital health to share research and ideas. It is designed to be both informative, provocative, and a showcase of the innovative work being undertaken in digital health in NSW, Victoria, and Queensland. It will bring together researchers, health services, industry, and the community to build person-centred eHealth collaborations. In 2026, we will once again be delivering an innovative program in partnership with the University of Queensland, University of Melbourne, and University of New South Wales.
The conference theme for 2026 is 'Digital Futures: Rethinking Health and Care'. As digital innovation accelerates, the future of health and care is being redefined. This conference invites researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and technologists to explore how emerging digital technologies - AI, data analytics, remote monitoring, virtual care, social media, and more - are reshaping healthcare systems, professional practices, and patient experiences. Join us for critical conversations, cutting-edge insights, and collaborative opportunities that will shape the next era of health and care. Submissions of in-progress or early stage research are encouraged.
By fostering discussions around Digital Futures: Rethinking Health and Care, the conference seeks to drive positive change in the digital health landscape, ultimately leading to improved health outcomes for everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances.
