PROGRAM STRUCTURE
Each day will begin with a Morning Plenary Session, offering an overview of the key technologies, data-analysis methods, and algorithms used in the development of wearable sensors, along with their applications across different areas of medicine.
In the afternoon, participants will join one of the four Thematic Tracks, each featuring focused lectures:
TRACK 1
Hands-on Sessions: Technologies and Data Analysis for Wearable Sensors
Explores sensor technologies, signal-processing techniques, and AI-based methods applied to data collected with wearable sensors in human healthcare and well-being.
TRACK 2
Advances in clinical rehabilitation and sports medicine using wearable sensors
Explores how wearable sensors support clinical rehabilitation and sports medicine by providing objective data, enhancing clinical decision-making, and informing personalized approaches across rehabilitation, prevention, monitoring, and sport-related clinical applications.
TRACK 3
Onco-hematology care through wearable sensors
Presents how wearable sensors can help clinicians improve monitoring and patient management in onco-hematology care.
