In the context of the COVID-19pandemic, the Digital Health, expressed as the merge of scientific knowledge, technological development and artificial intelligence, has played an unprecedented role.
It is important that these advances lead to improvements in health care, both in outpatient and inpatient care. Therefore, at the Carlos Slim Foundation, we have carried out a review and selection of the existing offer, considering the prestige of the academic institutions, the relevance and potential impact of the curriculum, and the ease of spread, among other factors.
