State-of-the-art technologies at the service of medical training and practice to foster Digital Health Ecosystems

During the last decades, technological revolution is creating unprecedented opportunities and challenges. No industry is exempt from this revolution, and in the field of medicine and healthcare, the impact is even more remarkable. Each person, with only one mobile application can synchronize their habits and lifestyle. Technological advances are changing the structure and organization of the medical ecosystem through a transformation driven by developments in the areas including big data, Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, 3D printing and virtual reality. The potential of these not-so-new technologies in the computer domain when applied to the health sector lies in the possibility of combining traditional medial approaches with other new forms of health data management and visualization, patient care, prosthetics, surgery, etc. The aim of this track is to collect some of the most innovative computer based technological developments applied to both the contexts of biomedical training and clinical practice, as well as in other fields related to Health Sciences training; providing an excellent opportunity for the promotion and exchange of innovative teaching experiences in the health field, especially those based on the use of state-of-the-art technology.
