lang="EN-US">“Healthy and Secure People” (HSP) is an
inter-disciplinary research area, that will focus on five
main key areas, which is focused on using scientific
models, methodologies and technologies for enhancing human
quality of life. In the next seven years 25% of EU
citizens will be over the age of 60. An aging population
opens a considerable sort of concerns, namely:
understanding health, wellbeing and disease; preventing
and diagnosing disease; treating and managing disease;
active ageing and self-management of health; methods and
knowledge; health care provision and integrated care.<br>
Following a person-centered approach, it deals directly
with individuals and groups of individuals. The main goal
of this workshop is contribute to the development of new
approaches and enabling technologies that will enhance
human quality of life, leading to healthier, innovation
and secure societies.<br>
