Clinical and biological data represent a huge information source for disease studies as well as for the improvement of wellness. Recent Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of data management and processes to prevent pandemic diffusion as well as to improve healthcare structure management. Studying clinical as well as wellness related data may help researchers in extracting information spanning from data crawled from biological laboratories to textual description of diseases and diagnostic device results (e.g., biomedical images). Diagnosis records associated with citizens cured in hospitals can be used for administrative processes (e.g., costs, reimbursement) as well as disease monitoring. Proteins and genes data can be used to relate (risk of) diseases to familiar as well as environmental information (e.g., Genome-Wide Association Studies), allowing integrating clinical, genomics, environmental data to increase life quality.
The workshop aims to attract people working in computer science and computer engineering area to present research topic related to the study of wellness improving. It aims to let authors working in area related to medicine to converge in a unique track to discuss and highline the importance of automatic process for life quality improvements via prevention and information extraction and/or enrichment.
Finally, the emergency of covid-19 increases the necessity of novel data models for epidemology and tracking systems. Thus innovative models and process management for pandemic and viruses diffusion are welcome.
