The topics

As in previous editions, #RIES24 will be a space for interactive dialogue, where the global healthcare community converges to reflect on the most pressing challenges and exciting opportunities. This year, we will focus on four key concepts:

• Personalized and Cutting Edge Medicine: Revolutionizing health, this medicine adapts treatments to the genetics, lifestyle and environment of each patient, achieving more effective therapies with fewer side effects Galicia stands out in this field, with advanced research centers and European collaborations, improving the welfare of Galicians and creating highly specialized jobs.
• Biomedicine: Combining biology and medicine to develop new therapies, this discipline investigates the structure and function of organisms at the molecular level. Galicia has become an important center of biomedicine, with innovative projects led by health research institutes and strong collaboration between universities, hospitals and biotechnological companies.
• Hybrid Care: Integrating advanced technology and human care, this model combines artificial intelligence with the empathy of healthcare professionals. In Galicia, hybrid care improves the patient experience by balancing efficiency and personalization, underscoring the commitment to comprehensive care.
• Circular Health: Promoting a sustainable and holistic approach to health, this concept is based on minimizing waste and maximizing resource efficiency. The Servizo Galego de Saúde (SERGAS) is leading this initiative in Galicia, adopting more sustainable practices and promoting healthy lifestyles to create a health system that benefits people and the planet.

The choice of these themes reflects #RIES24’s commitment to the most relevant challenges and trends in the field of healthcare. Personalized and cutting-edge medicine and biomedicine represent the future of medical treatments and scientific innovation. Hybrid care responds to the need to integrate technology and humanity in healthcare. Circular health, meanwhile, addresses the growing importance of sustainability and efficiency in healthcare systems. These concepts form a comprehensive and advanced vision of health, aligned with Galicia’s global and regional priorities.
