EAI Healthwear 2023 will be held as an on-site conference and if needed, Accepted Authors who are unable to attend the event in person will be given an option to present remotely.

Scope

The combination of wearable devices and personalized medicine is proving to be a game-changer for healthcare. Wearable devices have created an ecosystem of self-tracking devices, smartphone apps, and related services that capture a variety of relevant health and fitness parameters. These devices allow individuals to track their health metrics such as heart rate, blood pressure, physical activity levels, sleep patterns, and more.

The collected data is then analyzed using various techniques from information science, sociology, psychology, statistics, machine learning, and data mining. This analysis provides new opportunities to enrich the understanding of individual and population health. Self-tracking data can provide better measures of everyday behavior and lifestyle and can complement more traditional clinical data collection, leading to a comprehensive picture of health.

Personalized medicine, on the other hand, focuses on tailoring healthcare to individual needs based on their genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environmental factors. It allows for more precise diagnoses, targeted treatments, and better outcomes.

Overall, the combination of wearable devices and personalized medicine is transforming the way we approach prevention, cure, and rehabilitation. It is enabling individuals to take charge of their health and provides healthcare providers with more data-driven insights to deliver targeted and effective treatments.

HealthWear 2023 brings together researchers, developers, designers, and industry professionals from the healthcare community and universities to discuss the key issues, opportunities, and obstacles for personal health data research. They will explore the challenges of capturing, summarizing, presenting, and retrieving relevant information from heterogeneous sources to support a new vision of pervasive personal healthcare.

Additional publication opportunities:

Paper submission

Papers should be submitted through EAI ‘Confy+‘ system, and have to comply with the Springer format (see Author’s kit section).

  • Regular papers should be up to 12-15+ pages in length.
  • Short papers should be 6-11 pages in length.

All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection.
