The Smart Health session is about fundamental technical and scientific advances that may change radically the way healthcare is conceived today. Longer life expectation, aging, overweight and pollution are among factors that pose severe challenges to healthcare and its sustainability. Wireless devices, brain-machine interfaces, and cognitive process models may provide potential solutions to a vast array of problems involving clinical and human aspects, as well as economics and social issues. The presenters will introduce and discuss some aspects of devices and technologies that are essential in defining new approaches to healthcare and human well-being.
