Research Projects
ProACT
Project PI: Professor John Dinsmore
ProACT (Integrated Technology Systems for ProACTive Patient Centred Care) is an EU-funded Horizon 2020 project in PHC-25-2015. ProACT targets Europe’s 50 million multimorbid patients to proactively self-manage and offset the EU’s annual €700 billion cost of chronic disease management. ProACT aims to develop and evaluate an ecosystem to integrate a wide variety of new and existing technologies to improve and advance home-based integrated care for older adults with multimorbidity, including associated co-morbidities.
visuAAL
Project PI: Professor John Dinsmore
The ageing population represents a crucial health and social challenge with relative economic impacts due to the increasing provision of care. The innovation introduced by Active and Assisted Living (AAL) solutions addresses social and healthcare demands while taking advantage of the economic opportunities offered by the Silver Economy. However, some of these solutions make use of smart cameras, raising concerns over privacy protection.
SEURO
Project PI: Professor John Dinsmore
SEURO aims to explore the optimisation and transferability of digital health solutions across the EU. This will be achieved via an the development and implementation of three new digital self-assessment tools: ProTransfer, ProBCF-C and ProInsight with the ProACT platform.
