Workshop Program
Information Systems for Health Emergencies
and Patients Oriented Research
(IS-4HE&POR)
Tuesday, 16-december-2025, 15H-18H (Wuhan time)
Session Chairing: João Miranda (Portugal), Anne-Grete Märtson (Netherlands)
The workshop on Information Systems for Health Emergencies and Patients Oriented Research (IS-4HE&POR) addresses Biomedicine and Health Informatics subjects associated with health emergencies and responses, along with digital applications directed to the patient’s safety and quality of life. While patient-based research is critical, vital in many cases, health emergencies are highly impacting the fragile equilibria within the healthcare supply chains.
