Plenary Session I
 Using mobile technology to enhance health research at the National Institutes of Health
Wendy J. Nilsen, PhD
Health Scientist Administrator
NIH Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR)
Abstract: The use of mobile technologies to more rapidly and accurately assess and modify behavior, biological states and contextual variables (e.g., current activities, mood, and environmental factors), has the potential to improve health and transform how health research is conducted. In addition, these technological advances can also help elucidate mechanisms underlying health and behavior change. For health interventions, mobile technologies provide an opportunity for researchers to develop scalable methods that can be individualized and operate in real time. In healthcare settings, mobile technologies offer a potential source of information, patient-and family-doctor communication and continuation of care beyond the clinic. Despite the tremendous promise of these technologies, researchers using mobile technologies are often faced with moving the science into areas that challenge traditional funding and disciplinary boundaries. To address these issues in behavioral and social sciences research, the National institutes of Health are working on numerous initiatives. Past funding has supported the development of range of mobile devices to assess in real-time biological functioning, stress responses, diet, activity and mood, as well as supporting mobile interventions to improve health in areas such as medication adherence, vaccination rates and overall functioning in people with chronic diseases. This session will highlight current funding and training opportunities across the NIH Institutes and Centers, as well as ongoing activities designed to facilitate mobile health technology research.
Biography: Wendy J. Nilsen, Ph.D. is a Health Scientist Administrator at the NIH Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR). Wendy’s primary focus at OBSSR is on the science of human behavior and behavior change, including: utilizing mobile technology to better understand health and effectively intervene, adherence, the mechanisms of behavior change and behavioral interventions in complex patients in primary care. More specifically, she is very active in the area of mHealth research (i.e., mobile technology to improve health). Her work includes: convening a meeting to address barriers to the utilization of mobile technology in behavioral and social science research; serving on numerous federal mHealth initiatives; and, leading an upcoming mHealth training institute. Wendy is also the chair of the Adherence Network, a trans-NIH effort to enhance and develop the science of adherence. She is also a member of the Science of Behavior Change executive working group. The project is an initiative funded through the Common Fund to develop a framework for understanding the mechanisms of behavior change. Wendy also chairs the Integrating Health Strategies workgroup at NIH that supports the science of behavioral treatments for ‘complex patients’ in primary care. In addition to her primary responsibilities, Wendy is involved in many ongoing behavior change initiatives, both within NIH and with other federal agency partners.
 Model-Based Intelligent Care for Quality of Life: Zen and Art of Health Maintenance
Misha Pavel, PhD
Program Director, Smart Health & Well-being; Computer & Information Science and Engineering, National Science Foundation
Professor; Department of Biomedical Engineering, Oregon Health & Science University
Abstract: Despite the rapidly escalating costs exceeding that of all other Western countries, the US healthcare performance remains mediocre. Unattended, the situation will get significantly aggravated by an increasingly aging population and concomitant increasing prevalence of chronic diseases. Only a disruptive change that would transform healthcare delivery from episodic and reactive to continuous and proactive, form clinic-centered to patient-centered, and from centralized to distributed would have a chance to cure the ailing system. To succeed, such a transformation would also have to move the spotlight from being disease-oriented to a focus on wellbeing over the lifespan, ranging from infants to frail elders. One emerging economically feasible solution to achieve this transformation involves technology-based approaches in addition to policy changes, such as reimbursement. A multifaceted approach including networking and information technology recently embraced by US government is possible, but requires the solution of a number of technical problems. These emerging challenges present significant opportunities for future computer science and engineering research and development. For example, trustworthy computing, service-oriented architectures, knowledge representation, datamining, statistical pattern recognition and information fusion are areas required for this task that will benefit from model-based approaches. In this presentation, I will first describe a snapshot of the current situation, a number of the problem areas to be addressed and also illustrate the need to develop model-based approaches. I will then describe examples of recent advances in this area and identify a number of algorithmic, technical and computational challenges that need to be addressed in the research and implementation of intelligent approaches to health maintenance. The success of these efforts will be predicated on multidisciplinary, multi-level and multi-scale approaches focused on quality-of-life and the support of independent living.
Biography: Dr. Misha Pavel has recently joined the National Science Foundation to direct a new program in Smart Heath and Well-Being. Previously, he has been a Professor and Chair of Biomedical Engineering with a joint appointment in Medical Informatics at Oregon Health & Science University. Dr. Pavel is also the Director of Point of Care Laboratory researching new methods for transforming healthcare to become more proactive and patient-centered based on unobtrusive monitoring, neurobehavioral assessment and computational modeling of behavioral and cognitive functions. These efforts have been focused on research and development of diagnostic tools, statistical inference algorithms, and cognitive aids as well as on care for aging and for populations with neurological problems. A key component of this work is a unique longitudinal study performed in conjunction with the Oregon Center for Aging and Technology (ORCATECH) which involves unobtrusive monitoring of more than 200 elders living independently. In the mid nineties, Dr. Pavel was a Technology Leader at AT&T Laboratories, where he was developing avant-garde networked, wireless and mobile applications for information access and context-aware interactions. Previously, as a faculty at New York University and at Stanford University, Dr. Pavel worked on sensor fusion, modeling human perception and pattern recognition in sensory- motor systems and human computer communication systems. In addition to his academic and industrial collaborations, a significant component of Dr. Pavel’s effort was performed in close collaboration with researchers at NASA Ames. As a Member of Technical Staff at the Bell Laboratories, he was developing new approaches to network analysis and modeling by incorporating characteristics of human behavior. Dr. Pavel received his Ph.D. in Experimental/Mathematical Psychology from New York University; M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University, and B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn.
 eHealth and Community Practice in the world
Carol Hullin RN,BN,Hons,PhD
Health Informatics Specialist
IMIA LAC President , Lead eHealth Specialist, ICT Unit World Bank
Abstract: Since 2005 eHealth has been use to improve the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) for healthcare delivery. The World Health Organization encourages the use of the resolution 58.28 from the World Health Assembly in the same year to health care providers and health ministries. Several countries are using technologies of information and communion for improving health of people. This area of eHealth is a great interest of stakeholders interested in empowering people by using the right tools at the right time with their own skills. Therefore, telemedicine is an example how the current crisis of accessing specialized care is improving by using this type of solutions. Once people access these technologies have the necessity to share their experiences with their own communities. This concept is not new for developing countries since they rely strongly in their communities for health and education purposes, however the approach within eHealth strategies is for providing structures and processes that facilities the manner these community practices access evidence for their decision making. This approach is useful when using persuasive technologies for communities that usually do not have the resources for health improvements.

Plenary Session II
 Personalized eHealth: Status and Challenges
Tsong-Ho Wu, Ph.D., IEEE Fellow
Service System Technology Center, Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), Taiwan
Abstract: Healthcare is becoming a significant socio-economic challenge around the world. For example, US alone spent about US$2.6 Trillion in 2008 (17% of GDP). Major world developed countries (US, EU and Japan) are promoting a new healthcare model, called personalized healthcare, to control the cost while improving citizens’ health through use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and care focus from treatment to prevention. Personalized healthcare is a healthcare model emphasizing the systematic use of context information about an individual patient to select or optimize that patient's preventative and therapeutic care. A comprehensive ICT-enabled personalized healthcare solution includes medical sensor-enabled remote monitoring, smart-phone enabled data aggregation, medical situation awareness and analysis (risk classification, root cause analysis and risk triggers), and context-aware coaching that enables solutions for converged disease risk management and patient behavior assistance toward prevention care or prediction of diseases for better disease risk control.
In this talk, we will review a high-level ICT-enabled personalized healthcare system and solution framework and discuss the current status and technology evolution. We will use a cast study of heart disease as an example to illustrate the concept and model of the ICT-enabled personalized healthcare solution framework and technical challenges faced by engineers and researchers.
