Stepping Forward: Calit2's eHealth Collaboratory

Calit2 Building Auditorium and Atrium, UC Irvine
Description:

By using pressure sensors and an accelerometer, a balancemonitoring insole that fits into any shoe captures real-time data about the wearer’s gait as she goes about her daily business; the information is sent directly to a healthcare provider. This is just one of the many innovative technologies being developed in Calit2’s new eHealth Collaboratory. Advances in information technology are creating revolutionary healthcare-delivery options that can improve quality, reduce cost and provide patient empowerment.



Join us June 2 to learn about the Collaboratory, where researchers from different disciplines share ideas, learn from each other and demonstrate working prototypes, such as the “Stability Sole.” See how

the Collaboratory’s high-touch approach advances all facets of eHealth, including telemedicine, mobile operating systems, wireless solutions and even micro- and nano-fluidics.
