Thanks for dropping by. My name is Guy Clapperton. I’ve been a tech journalist for 30 years and I love to interview experts on what's coming up.

I’ve called this podcast and the presentations I do with it “The Near-Futurist”. Click on "About" to find out more about my speaking; meanwhile the podcast episodes are below and there's a new one every month.

Apr 12, 2019

Near futurist Guy Clapperton speaks to Dr. Michael Brooks, a doctor who is also a computer coder - and who is determined to persuade the medical establishment that the still-used standard of storing loads of records on paper is harmful. He starts with the harrowing story of someone who had to go through an investigative procedure twice when the original results were lost - and the second time it didn't go so well.

He also looks at human error and his ambition to get the medical industry's error rate closer to the safety expected from the aviation industry.
