MOSAIC roadmap for mobile collaborative work related to health and wellbeing.
The objective of the MOSAIC project is to accelerate innovation in Mobile Worker Support Environments. For that purpose MOSAIC develops visions and illustrative scenarios for future collaborative workspaces involving mobile and location-aware working. Analysis of the scenarios is input to the process of road mapping with the purpose of developing strategies for R&D leading to deployment of innovative mobile work technologies and applications across different domains. One of the application domains where MOSAIC is active is health and wellbeing. This paper builds on another paper submitted to this same conference, which presents and discusses health care and wellbeing specific scenarios. The aim is to present an early form of a roadmap for validation
Artificial Intelligence for Global Health: Learning From a Decade of Digital Transformation in Health Care
The health needs of those living in resource-limited settings are a vastly
overlooked and understudied area in the intersection of machine learning (ML)
and health care. While the use of ML in health care is more recently
popularized over the last few years from the advancement of deep learning,
low-and-middle income countries (LMICs) have already been undergoing a digital
transformation of their own in health care over the last decade, leapfrogging
milestones due to the adoption of mobile health (mHealth). With the
introduction of new technologies, it is common to start afresh with a top-down
approach, and implement these technologies in isolation, leading to lack of use
and a waste of resources. In this paper, we outline the necessary
considerations both from the perspective of current gaps in research, as well
as from the lived experiences of health care professionals in resource-limited
settings. We also outline briefly several key components of successful
implementation and deployment of technologies within health systems in LMICs,
including technical and cultural considerations in the development process
relevant to the building of machine learning solutions. We then draw on these
experiences to address where key opportunities for impact exist in
resource-limited settings, and where AI/ML can provide the most benefit.Comment: Accepted Paper at ICLR 2020 Workshop on Practical ML for Developing

The impact of artificial intelligence on the current and future practice of clinical cancer genomics.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most significant fields of development in the current digital age. Rapid advancements have raised speculation as to its potential benefits in a wide range of fields, with healthcare often at the forefront. However, amidst this optimism, apprehension and opposition continue to strongly persist. Oft-cited concerns include the threat of unemployment, harm to the doctor-patient relationship and questions of safety and accuracy. In this article, we review both the current and future medical applications of AI within the sub-speciality of cancer genomics
The European Institute for Innovation through Health Data
The European Institute for Innovation through Health Data (i~HD, www.i-hd.eu) has been formed as one of the key sustainable entities arising from the Electronic Health Records for Clinical Research (IMI-JU-115189) and SemanticHealthNet (FP7-288408) projects, in collaboration with several other European projects and initiatives supported by the European Commission. i~HD is a European not-for-profit body, registered in Belgium through Royal Assent. i~HD has been established to tackle areas of challenge in the successful scaling up of innovations that critically rely on high-quality and interoperable health data. It will specifically address obstacles and opportunities to using health data by collating, developing, and promoting best practices in information governance and in semantic interoperability. It will help to sustain and propagate the results of health information and communication technology (ICT) research that enables better use of health data, assessing and optimizing their novel value wherever possible. i~HD has been formed after wide consultation and engagement of many stakeholders to develop methods, solutions, and services that can help to maximize the value obtained by all stakeholders from health data. It will support innovations in health maintenance, health care delivery, and knowledge discovery while ensuring compliance with all legal prerequisites, especially regarding the insurance of patient's privacy protection. It is bringing multiple stakeholder groups together so as to ensure that future solutions serve their collective needs and can be readily adopted affordably and at scale
