Personal Health - Intelligent Solutions to Serve Empowered Patients

ICMCC8-11 June 2010, University of Westminster, UK.
The International Council on Medical and Care Compunetics (ICMCC) intents to combine in this event ontology-driven health information system design for advanced interoperability with the paradigm change towards pervasive person-centric care including prevention, home care and wellness, together forming adaptive distributed health information systems solutions.

As global and internationally well acknowledged initiative (with liaisons to WHO, UN Chapters, World Academy on Biomedical Engineering, etc.), ICMCC deals with Medical and Care Compunetics, i.e. social, societal and ethical impacts of computing and networking in healthcare. An important issue to be considered are virtual Electronic Health Records and Personal Health Records acting as semantically interoperable communication and cooperation platform for personalized ubiquitous health services in a trustworthy environment.
