About

It is our great pleasure to announce that the 15th IEEE International Conference on e-Health Networking, Application & Services (IEEE Healthcom 2013) will be held in Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal, from October 09 to October 12, 2013.

IEEE Healthcom 2013 is fully sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society. It aims at bringing together interested parties from around the world working in the health care field to exchange ideas, to discuss innovative and emerging solutions, and to develop collaborations. eHealth is defined as the cost-effective and secure use of information and communications technologies in support of health and the related fields, including health-care related services, surveillance, literature, education, knowledge, and research, both at the local site and at a distance. It will make personalized medicine possible and affordable in the near future. The adoption of eHealth technologies in medical fields creates huge opportunities yet lots of challenges still need to be resolved to build reliable, secure, and efficient networks or platforms with great flexibility.
