- Physician and director of the Radboud REshape & Innovation Center at Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands.
- Champion of patients as the single most important resource in the contemporary world of health care.
- Advocate and innovator of exciting new technology allowing patients to take a more active role in caring for their health.
Dr. Lucien Engelen believes that patients themselves are the biggest resource in the world of health care, and he’s dedicated to improving the capacity of individuals and networks to maximize this resource. As director of the Radboud REshape & Innovation Centre at Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands, Dr. Engelen studies how new technology can revitalize existing care models in an atmosphere of rising health care demand, staff shortages, and limited finances.
Dr. Engelen, a physician, seeks to develop technologies that allow patients to take a more active role in caring for their health. He has pioneered innovations that allow patients to speak directly with their health care providers over a Skype-like network that provides adequate provision for patient privacy. His center has developed an online community for young cancer patients where they can share information and support in a secure environment.
The rise of the Internet has revolutionized and democratized travel and music; Dr. Engelen believes similar change is underway in the field of medicine. Patients and their family members are also expert in the diseases they experience, and technology provides the tools to establish networks that capitalize upon the power of this experience.
In addition to his work at Radboud, Engelen is on the faculty of Silicon Valley’s Singularity University.

“Lucien is a man with a mission and a vision. He has a clear vision about the direction health care should develop into and works with passion, knowledge and influence in that direction. He’s a frontrunner without losing sight of his followers. He knows that innovation is nothing without implementation.”

Dr. Lucien Engelen has a passion for health care and, most importantly, a passion for patients. He believes patients themselves hold the key to transforming modern medicine into a realm of empowerment and connection. A seasoned medical technologist with an impressive body of research credentials, Dr. Engelen has become an evangelist for the promise that exists when patients are given the tools to put technology to work.
As a physician in a teaching hospital, Dr. Engelen is well equipped to translate his exciting new research into readily understandable terms. The insights he shares have appeal for medical audiences, technology professionals, and anyone interested in the future of public health. Dr. Engelen’s active roles in both the United States and Europe grant him important comparative perspective, offering commentary on the unique strengths and challenges of medical care in different parts of the world.
Sometimes referred to as the “Steve Jobs of medical technology,” Dr. Engelen understands that any use of technology ultimately hinges on its applicability and ease of function in human lives. Patients always remain the fundamental focus of Dr. Engelen’s research. As a result, the tools he brings to the health care table are both practical and potentially life changing.
Lucien Engelen’s informative presentations reflect his relentless passion for the healthcare industry and patients. His talks endorse modern technology as a means of giving patients more control over their informal care, explaining the innovations and changes that need to take place so that people can “be part of their own disease again.”
Often considered the Steve Jobs of medical technology, Lucien fearlessly introduces and implements new ideas never losing sight of his mission to create a world where healthcare revolves more around patient participation.
