NeuroInformatics for Aging
This SIG will be a community dedicated to the creation and application of neuroinformatics technologies to address clinical and wellness challenges in aging.
Countries in Asia Pacific will face a major societal burden due to decline in mental abilities and health of rapidly aging population. The technology solutions to this challenge will come from the intersection of aging neuroscience, cognitive engineering and information sciences. We call this field neuroinformatics for aging, where the management and analysis of data will be combined with neurorobotics, neuropsychology, clinical neurology and social neuroscience to delay the decline or improve the mental abilities among the aging.
