International Symposium on Biomedical Informatics in Europe
25-27 June, 2007, Barcelona Spain
The discovery of the human genome sequence has evidenced the need for
a strong collaborative effort between Bioinformatics and Medical
Informatics. Up to now, these disciplines have followed separate
evolution paths, however, if 'genomic medicine' is to become a reality
a new integrated approach is required.

European Commission launches proposals for first Joint Technology
Initiatives
The European Commission is now on the road to creating the first ever
Europe-wide public-private partnerships to boost research and
development, having adopted proposals for initiatives in two strategic
industrial sectors.
The Commission presented two Joint Technology Initiatives (JTIs),
worth approximately =E2=82=AC5 billion, on embedded computing systems, to be
known as ARTEMIS (Advanced Research and Technology for Embedded
Intelligence and Systems), and on innovative medicines (Innovative
Medicines Initiative).

TeleMed & eHealth 2007 - Call for Workshop/Abstracts
26-27 November 2007
Self-care is increasingly seen by patients, government, and healthcare
providers as a way of helping to manage the rising tide of long-term
chronic conditions, and is expected to improve both health outcomes
and patient satisfaction. eHealth technologies have the potential to
play a key role in self care, and TeleMed & eHealth 2007 will explore
the opportunities and challenges surrounding their introduction.

BIOTEX Project
Integration of health monitoring tools into textiles brings the
benefits of safety and comfort to the users. Instrumented clothes will
provide remote monitoring of vitals signs, diagnostics to improve
early illness detection and metabolic disorder and benefits to the
reduction on medical social costs to the citizen. Ambulatory
healthcare, isolated people, convalescent people and patients with
chronic diseases are addressed.

MRI for restless patients
It's not easy to keep absolutely still in the 'bore' during a magnetic
resonance imaging examination =E2=80=93 yet even the tiniest motion can
distort the results. The PROMO optical recognition system compensates
for such errors.
The patient lies in the bore, keeping as still as he can - but he
finds it very hard to remain immobile for so long. If he moves too
much, he risks causing errors - known by experts as artifacts - in the
magnetic resonance image.
