Summary

Your host, Steve Worona, will be joined by Kim Milford and Alan Walsh and the topic will be "Engagement and Partnerships: Identity Outreach at Indiana University."

Indiana University and Purdue University recently asked the Indiana General Assembly to create the Indiana Innovation Alliance. This purpose of the alliance is to expand research in the life sciences and also to improve public health.

In this session we will talk about identity management in the context of this announcement and how it relates to the values that are driving the mission of Indiana University today. Our primary focus will be the partnership between Indiana University and Clarian Health and the challenges faced by doctors, nurses, and medical students who constantly float across organizational boundaries.
