EduWeb 2015: My Story — Adventures in Digital StorytellingVincent Rhodes
As a campus of physicians and scientists, EVMS’ marketing traditionally relied on logic, rather than stories, as the primary means of communicating. We lacked a critical narrative that would help prospective patients and the community better understand our impact. The “My Story” campaign was conceived to share emotionally impactful patient testimonials, allowing their heartfelt stories — rather than cold data — to help us accomplish key objectives.
Development of a microsite and compelling video content was just the beginning. This successful, award-winning program has expanded to include student and donor stories. The project has provided video used in major speeches, town hall meetings and public events; inspired ads; and contributed to the successful conclusion of a capital campaign.
The My Story project is the cornerstone of our goal to put a “face” on the human impact of EVMS’ contributions to the community, particularly in terms of superlative patient care. The My Story concept emerged from a desire to step out from behind the numbers and forge a connection through the heart rather than just the mind.
This initiative leverages existing resources: a videographer and public relations staff; our website; campus digital signage; institutional publications, social media (primarily Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Vimeo); and our internal enewsletter translating into modest start-up and maintenance costs. Both anecdotal responses and objective data have demonstrated a solid return on investment.
See sample videos and explore the decision making behind the creation of our microsite. Find out how digital video storytelling could be an effective strategy in achieving your goals.
IN THIS SUMMARY
In Get Seen, Steve Garfield describes how businesses and individuals can use online video to increase visibility. He first deals with the process of creating online videos, and then explores the task of sharing and distributing videos. One of the most important elements involved when creating a successful online video is to effectively convey a compelling story. In fact, high production quality is not nearly as important as the content itself. Essentially, online video allows for communication between viewers and creators. What sets online video apart from television is the ability of its audience to immediately respond to and get feedback from the video’s producer.

As we are approaching an end to the restrictions associated with COVID-19, it seems a good time to reflect on the disruptions and focus on how technology might be applied to avoid the same situation happening again. It is almost inevitable, in my opinion, that our pre-COVID lifestyles and travel/mobility will almost certainly lead to future pandemics and whilst the lessons learnt in fast-tracking clinical research and development of new drugs and vaccines will help to mitigate the situation, it does not alter the pressing need to shift focus from cure to prevention.
Digital Health and Digital Therapeutics technologies can help to protect the future sustainability of public health services through personal physical and mental health management whilst Digital Medicine will enable early detection of clinical problems and a range of innovative new solutions for cures.
This month’s E-Newsletter includes details of previous and upcoming events where the focus has been on addressing some of the challenges of preventative healthcare, especially in the area of the Ageing Society. Links to archived presentations and future events are included and we hope you will enjoy the past presentations and register for some of the upcoming events.

The Future of Digital Medicine in the Aging SocietyDavid Wortley
Global Health and sustainable improvements in the
well‑being of humans are seriously threatened by two
societal phenomena.
The aging society
Across the globe, falling birth rates and increased life
expectancies have led to significant increases in the
percentage of citizens aged over 65 years compared
to the younger working population. The increased
life expectancies have, at least in part, been a result of
improvements in health care, and the diagnosis and
treatment of diseases and medical conditions that have
traditionally caused premature death.
Impact of lifestyle and medical advances on
causes of death
Medical advances have all but eradicated many of the traditional
causes of death from communicable diseases with a
consequent growth in morbidity resulting from lifestyle
choices and behaviors.
The issue with lifestyle‑related conditions is the behaviors
such as sedentary lifestyles and poor diets adopted early
in life have a major and cumulative effect in later life
resulting in diabetes and cardiovascular problems which
require often expensive interventions and high levels of
cost to public health services.
The role of digital technologies in medicine,
health, and well‑being
Digital technologies have undoubtedly had a major
impact on medicine both in diagnostics and treatment.
Modern digital scanning, artificial intelligence, big
data analytics, human‑computer interfaces, robotics,
and 3D visualization technologies have all helped to
not only increase our understanding of the physiology
of the human body and enabled early detection of
medical conditions but also they have contributed
to increasingly more targeted and personalized
interventions.
However, set against these positive benefits of digital
medicine and health technologies is the impact of
technologies which reduce the daily physical and cognitive
challenges that have throughout history constantly
exercised our bodies and minds and in the process, given
us the active lifestyles needed to maintain health and
well‑being...........

Digital Health Applications and Hospitals of the FutureDavid Wortley
The National Healthcare Expo 2019 Conference was held in late November in Milton Keynes. In my presentation in the eHealth Track (presentation and video links included in this article), I outlined 3 points to think about when looking at the future of Digital Technologies in Healthcare and Medicine.
The digital technologies which will have the biggest impact on global health will not have been designed by or for medical professionals
Consumer technologies, sometime referred to as “general” technologies are being applied across almost all sectors of business and society for purposes which were not originally envisaged or intended. The health sector is a good example in which all of the technologies shown below are now being applied for health and well-being :-
• Smartphones
• Fitness Trackers
• Whatsapp and WeChat
• Virtual Reality Headsets
• Panoramic Cameras
• Artificial Intelligence
• Sensors
With the possible exception of fitness trackers, none of these technologies were developed by or for medical professionals. There are some profound implications, not only for the future of healthcare but also for the roles and responsibilities of health professionals and citizens. The graph below shows how digital technologies for health are shifting from expensive, stand-alone, proprietary technologies to smart, connected, consumer technologies.
Smart Augmented VR for Health - Celtic-Next proposalDavid Wortley
This is the latest version of my Celtic pitch for building a consortium to bid for Eureka funding. It includes details of a webinar to be held on Sept 12th at 11:30 am CET
Gamification is NOT all about Badges, Points and Rewards
Gamification is gaining increasing amounts of attention and credibility as a concept that can be applied to achieve goals and objectives in many “non play/entertainment” sectors. Much of what is being offered as “Gamification Strategies” focuses on the use of badges, points and rewards, giving the impression that successful Gamification is about offering rewards, incentives and recognition. This document is intended to challenge that notion and to offer a more comprehensive understanding of how and why Gamification is so significant in today’s digital age.
Gamification has been described as the use of game mechanics in non-game contexts. This makes the assumption that there is some differentiation between games and other everyday activities. Whilst the above definition seems intuitively understandable because it somehow implies that games allow “risk-free, trial and error” development that is missing in work or other situations, I believe that every human activity should be viewed as a game if we are to develop the skills and understanding to apply Gamification strategies successfully.
The first point to make in the argument that games are an essential part of every human activity is that we frequently use the words “games” and “players” in “non-game” contexts. Examples include “BP is a major player in the oil industry” or “He/she is playing mind-games”. I have heard the expression “benign manipulation” used to describe gamification but the reality is that we all use gamification skills every day of our lives in order to have some control or influence over our lives.

Digital Behaviours and Preventative HealthcareDavid Wortley
This presentation was delivered at the Wearable Tech Show held at the Business Design Centre in Islington London. It looks at the opportunities and challenges presented by disruptive digital technologies being developed for the health sector. It concludes that digital technologies which support preventative healthcare and personal health management are vital for the sustainability of public health services which are globally threatened by lifestyle related conditions such as obesity, diabetes and dementia. It highlights the dangers of over-dependence on technologies such as artificial intelligence and an unreasonable expectation that technologies can absolve us the need to take personal responsibility for our own health management.

Transfer to immortality - A Sustainable Singularity Solution ?David Wortley
I delivered this presentation at the Sci-Fi 2018 conference organised by Eurosis and taken place at the Novotel in Bruges. It considers the potential reality of Singularity and the option of immortality through a human/machine blend. The presentation describes legislation to protect environmental resources in which humans have to be put to sleep on their 100th birthday in a scenario which combines transfer of all your human experiences, relationships, traits and knowledge into an avatar who is paired with the chosen "love of your life" by a mixture of AI, your emotions and a global audience who can share your life memories and feelings and vote for a person. It challenges by example to imagine what memories the audience would retrieve on their last day.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
