The event will open with a general session on standardisation, followed by a dedicated session showcasing student research, featuring current PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers whose work engages with standards. 

This will be followed by contributions from experts who have led the development of health informatics standards, alongside representatives of the Health Service Executive, who will share their experience of implementing standards in practice. 

The event will conclude with an interactive panel Q&A, offering participants the opportunity to engage directly with the speakers.

N.B.: The event will be delivered to a specific cohort of students of Dublin City University (DCU) as part of their academic module.
