The Team
-
BDFL and Clinical AdviserMarcus is a self-described 'General Hacktitioner' GP, Emergency Physician, specialist in clinical IT, and a programmer of an increasing range of languages that he barely understands. He founded Open Health Hub with Rob Dyke and Ewan Davis back in 2012, and since then has been trying to create positive change in NHS IT.

CTORob is a veteran practitioner of open sourcery in NHS-land. Iconoclastic, bombastic, almost EHI Healthcare IT Champion (2013). He's developed innovative products, successfuly navigated procurements, formed (unlikely) alliances, written award bids winning £ms for NHS orgs from tech/nursing/challenge funds, and survived the benign and benevolent effects of support from 'the centre'. Just. He requires little food, lots of coffee, has a photographic memory, and knows where many a skeleton is buried.

Core TeamKenny has been working in Health Tech since 1999 with a main focus on Primary Care IT. His first hack was whilst he was still in the Navy as a Communications/Messaging specialist when his boss caught him playing Prince of Persia on a 16ft display screen used for Navigation training (Windows didn't exist then)! He is passionate about delivery of technology that provides ease of use to the front line practitioner. He worked closely with Microsoft during the NHS EWA years and was involved in the Primary Healthcare specialist group (Which is where he met Rob). Latterly, his focus has been on CyberSecurity and the education of the Front line user of Health tech.
