“It’s exciting to see how AT&T can play a
role in transforming the doctor-patient
relationship. We’re proud to be working
with some of the leading minds in the
U.S. on innovative solutions for the future
of health care.”
— Lusheng Ji, AT&T
Bob and Lusheng
Bob Miller’s storied AT&T career, spanning
more than 40 years, has seen the creation
of technologies embedded in our everyday
lives — digital mobile phones, advanced
teleconferencing systems and multimedia
wireless devices. As head of AT&T Labs’
Communications Technology Research
department, Bob leads the company’s
telehealth research. His team, including
Lusheng Ji, works to harness the power
of wireless and broadband networking to
deliver innovative health care solutions
such as electronic sharing of medical
records, secure data exchange among
physicians and remote patient monitoring.
Lusheng is helping make the doctor-
patient relationship more productive —
developing new services with the
potential to deliver instant feedback to
doctors, giving patients more freedom
and enabling more accurate diagnoses.
Imagine a networked “pillminder,” for
example, that would allow doctors
to confirm that patients are taking
their medication properly — a key
contributor to positive outcomes.
Or picture a networked “smart scale”
that would record patients’ weights
automatically to help physicians track
trends remotely. This team is working
to bring solutions like these to life.
