AI-Driven Smart Health Ecosystems for Ageing and Neurocognitive Care

Moderator:
Senior Researcher Marilena Ianculescu, PhD

About workshop:

This special session focuses on next-generation digital health ecosystems powered by artificial intelligence, addressing current and emerging needs in ageing, chronic disease management, and neurocognitive care. The aim is to bring together interdisciplinary research and applied innovation in the development of intelligent platforms that support predictive, preventive, and personalized healthcare services. Emphasis will be placed on the integration of medical IoT devices, wearable sensors, multimodal data analysis, and cloud-based AI technologies to enable continuous monitoring and timely interventions, especially in elderly or at-risk populations. The session also encourages a user-centered approach, highlighting clinically meaningful and ethically sound solutions for remote or home-based care.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 

  • AI-based models for early detection and progression monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, etc.);
  • Smart platforms for lifestyle and health monitoring in ageing and vulnerable populations;
  • Personalized digital interventions for cognitive decline and active ageing;
  • Preventive technologies using longitudinal and behavioral health data;
  • Real-world applications of AI for remote diagnostics and home healthcare.
