Digital for inclusiveness and home support For some elderly or handicapped people, the absence or loss of mobility, the limitation of exploration capacities, deprives them of autonomy and independence in daily or social activities. Although solutions exist in terms of support or technical aids, the prevention and preservation of independence, inclusiveness and home support has become a national [..]

In our digital world, information sciences play a leading role in a number of areas, particularly in the field of healthcare. To give just a few examples: Tomorrow's medicine will rely on data science to analyze masses of heterogeneous data on pathologies, patients, genomics, etc. in order to propose a personalized, preventive, predictive and participatory approach; Robotics becomes a precious [..]
