Course introduction
Welcome to our course!
I am Dr Shabbir Syed-Abdul. On this course you will explore and discuss how new digital health technologies, like wearables, social media and home sensors, are starting to transform the management of cancer. There are hundreds of apps for people living with cancer – are they helpful? Can wearable devices promote healthier lifestyles in patients with cancer? It’s time to find out.
In cooperation with researchers of the European Project CATCH, we will begin by exploring some of the practical issues happening in cancer patients. Then we will suggest some solutions to answer these problems.
The co-educators of this course are:
- Prof. Pei-Shan Tsai
- Dr. Luis Fernadez Luque
- Prof. Brian Caulfield & the CATCH team
We hope you enjoy. Thanks.
