Research Themes
To maintain a high level of innovation, we are seeking to participate in projects taking into account the latest research in the following areas:
- Non-invasive, multi-parametric monitoring for capturing activity, contextual, emotional and behavioural information, system using ambient, mobile or wearable technology.
- Chronic disease management within continuity of clinical care context: developing stepwise strategies spanning prevention, early intervention, treatment support, and relapse prevention.
- Individually tailored decision support feedback system correlating behavioural, nutritional, and genetic predispositions parameters.
- User-friendly, accessible, interactive, and immersive (haptic, 3D, virtual reality) technologies for supporting a more collaborative health maintenance process between users and health care professionals, and more meaningful exchanges between individuals, and their support communities (other people with the same problems, friends, and family members).
- Integrating innovative assessment tools including biomedical, behavioural, nutrition, cognitive performance or quality of life as outcome measures.
- Research related to security, data protection, privacy and confidentiality for e-health applications and services.
- eTraining supporting skill acquisition and life-long learning of researchers, industry and users.
