Professor Arunangsu Chatterjee

Dean of Digital Transformation and Professor of Digital Health and Education

Professor Arunangsu Chatterjee is Dean of Digital Transformation and Professor of Digital Health and Education at the University of Leeds, where he is responsible to the delivery of the University's digital transformation strategy, working to translate innovation into sustainable, measurable improvement. His academic work sits at the intersection of health and education technologies, with a focus on how emerging digital innovations, such as AI, robotics and extended (immersive) realities (XR) can build capability and enable more personalised, context-sensitive learning and care in complex systems such as universities and the NHS. In his keynote, he will draw on a long-standing commitment to technology enhanced learning, underpinned by self regulated learning and adaptive, learner centred design, to explore how healthcare educators can translate innovation into measurable educational and patient centred impact as people transition across roles and professional identities.
