In today's digital age, the conversation around health data privacy has become increasingly complex. While technological advancements offer tremendous potential for improving healthcare outcomes, they also raise concerns about the security and misuse of sensitive personal information.

In the ever-evolving landscape of higher education, one thing remains constant: the paramount importance of the student experience. As we witness the emergence of a new cohort of learners – the refined, digitally-savvy, and discerning – the need for universities to co-design their offerings with this critical audience in mind has never been more pressing.
