Moscow, April 12, 2019. Opening of theInternational Forum on Digital Medicine. 'The development of telemedicine in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation is the most important element of the strategy of social development', stated Senator Ildus Akhmetzyanov.
Konstanz, September 29, 2018. For the first time, the computer science faculties of the HTWG and Reutlingen University of Applied Sciences have organized a German-Russian summer school together with Moscow's Sechenov University. With great success - even before its end a repetition was considered.
What developments in computer science will shape the medicine of the future? Where can it support everyday medical practice? How can diagnoses be made easier? And how do new media actually change the relationship between doctor and patient? These are just a few of the questions the German-Russian Summer School dealt with on the subject of medical informatics. For the first time, the computer science faculties of the HTWG and the Reutlingen University of Applied Sciences organized the event together with the Moscow Sechenov University. Sechenov University is the oldest Russian educational institution for health and care. It has a large medical faculty and offers further life science-oriented courses of study.
Within two weeks, eight female and two male students of the still young "General Medicine" course of study at the Russian university gained insights not only into the fields of application of modern medical informatics, but also direct experience reports from users in the German and Swiss health care system.
While the first week of the Summer School at Reutlingen University focused on the theoretical possibilities of Big Data, Blockchain, Wearables and virtual reality, the second week of the program at the HTWG in Constance focused on application. "It brought me an incredible amount of benefit that we were able to hear the experiences of practitioners in the application," said a Russian student in retrospect. The versatile programme included a guided tour of the Constance Hospital by the head of radiology, Prof. Dr. Markus Juchems, and a lecture by Dr. Sabine Schmidt-Weitmann (photo), who, as a "tele-doctor" with a team of doctors, tested online consultation hours via e-mail at the University Hospital and researched the response of patients to the offer.
Prof. Dr. Ralf Seepold, who co-initiated and organised the Summer School, led the programme in Constance. "Our goal was to show the broad spectrum of possible applications of computer science in digital medicine and to provide an insight into future trends," he said. Prof. Dr. Christian Wache from the HTWG Health Informatics course of studies addressed the compatibility of medical data in a workshop, while PhD student Maksym Gaiduk presented the possibilities of non-invasive sleep research. Two students, who had already worked in the sleep laboratory in Russia themselves, tested the new applications on their own during the summer school. "The exchange of knowledge is a great benefit. Cooperation between universities worldwide will have to become a matter of course in view of the new developments. I am delighted to be able to participate," said one student.
The mixture of lectures, laboratory visits, excursions and practical workshops was so well received that a repetition was already being considered before the end of the Summer School. (aw)

Granada, April 2018. The analysis of data streams captured with biomedical sensors can be performed as an embedded procedure within the sensor or sensor network or at a later stage in a receiving system. Currently, several systems reduce the number of signals monitored via sensors (e.g. when using wearable devices) in order to save energy. In this case, the preprocessing task is embedded into the sensor or close to it. As a result, less data is transferred but pattern matching becomes more complex since cross-reference data is missing and computing power is limited. This session presents new and emerging approaches. Prof. Dr. Martïnez Madrid (Reulingen), Prof. Dr. Ortega (Sevilla), Prof. Dr. Seepold (HTWG Konstanz) openeing the scientific session at IWBBIO 2018.

Konstanz, December 2017. The overall scientific goal of the collaboration between HTWG Konstanz (Prof. Dr. Seepold), Slovak University of Technology (Prof. Dr. Lehocki) and Reutlingen University (Prof. Dr. Martínez Madrid) is to detect and analyze a person's emotion with the help of a sensor network in order to support diagnostic decisions. In this project, emotion detection requires personalized analysis of a multi-dimensional set of parameters in real-time. The set of acquired parameters include different bio vital data (like ECG, EEG, skin conductivity, etc.) together with non- bio vital data (like location, movement/activity detection, activity in social media, etc.). These parameters are stored in a time-series of multidimensional matrices. Different parameters of both types (vital and non-vital) can be combined in subsets to perform pattern-based emotion recognition. For example, stress is associated with certain ECG-patterns (increased heart rate), and the recognized activity (for example running) can be used to strengthen or weaken (as in this case) the emotion recognition result.
Ancona, September, 2017. Within the research cooperation with Università Politecnica delle Marche (Italy) sharing of experiences in measurement and processing of biovital data is taking place for already many years. During the last of regular research stays in Ancona the new wireless system for EMG/ECG measurments was presented by Prof. Paolo Crippa for the researchers from University of Konstanz.
Die Hochschule Konstanz veranstaltet gemeinsam mit der Züricher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften eine Fachtagung mit dem Titel „Smart-Future-Living Bodensee“ in Konstanz. Die Konferenz beschäftigt sich mit der Fragestellung, in wie weit die neuesten Technologien das zukünftige Leben in Smart Homes unterstützt und was zu tun ist, um den Markt der breiten Öffentlichkeit zu erschließen.
Eine maßgebliche Herausforderung der Zukunft, wie sie auch die Vereinten Nationen in ihrer Agenda 2030 beschreiben, kann nur durch die gezielte Vernetzung diverser Fachrichtungen gelingen. Insbesondere der nachhaltigere Umgang mit den uns zur Verfügung stehenden Ressourcen muss die Industriestaaten in den kommenden Jahrzehnten beschäftigen. Die Konferenz „Smart-Future-Living Bodensee“ soll einen Beitrag hierzu leisten. Hierbei sollen renommierte Vertreter/innen aus der Industrie und der Wissenschaft, aber auch Nachwuchswissenschaftler/innen über die einschlägigen Disziplinen hinweg sich in dem Bereich austauschen. So soll der Grundstein für Strategien und Projekte gelegt werden, welche nicht nur grenzüberschreitend, sondern auch interdisziplinär für eine zukunftsweisende Forschungsarbeit im Bodenseeraum stehen.
Der Grundgedanke der Konferenz ist, dass jede Disziplin schon heute für sich gesehen über die notwendigen Technologien verfügt, um einen angemessenen Ressourcenverbrauch in unserem täglichen Leben zu realisieren und dabei die Lebensqualität, zum Beispiel auch mit Lösungsansätzen aus dem Assisted Living, zu erhöhen. Ziel der Konferenz ist der Wissenstransfer über die Disziplinen und Grenzen hinweg. So sollen die persönlichen Kontakte zu grenzüberschreitenden Folgeprojekten führen.
Die Tagung richtet sich an folgende Zielgruppen

Konstanz, Juli 20, 2017. Prof. Im Rahmen der gemeinsamen Veranstaltung von HTWG und Uni Konstanz entwickeln die Schüler auf dem Camp der HTWG eine Fernsteuerung für batteriegetriebene Elektroautos. Die Fahrzeuge werden auf Basis einer Intel Edison-Plattform programmiert und anschließend mit einem Playstation-Kontroller gesteuert.
Dormbirn, June 22, 2017. Prof. Dr. Seepold reported about the work of the regional cluster Smart Home & Living Baden-Württemberg e.V. during the uDay 2017 event organized by FH Vorarlberg. The main results of the working groups Modularity and Communication have been presented. The first group is chaired by Prof. Seepold and the second one by Prof. Martínez Madrid from Reutlingen University.
Seville/Granada, April 28, 2017. Maksym Gaiduk reported during the IWBBIO conference about the first prototype of a sensor grid for pressure and movement detection. The system represented in this work classifies respiration and body movement with only one type of sensor and also in a non-invasive way. The sensor used is a pressure sensor. This sensor is low cost and can be used for commercial proposes. The system was tested by carrying out an experiment that recorded the sleep process of a subject.
Konsanz, March 23, 2017. Non-invasive Sleep Phase Detection by Using Pressure-Sensitive Sensors was the topic of the presentation of Agnes Klein's Master Thesis. Agnes says that she investigated on a new approach to classify sleep phases, based on the parameters of body movement, heartbeat and respiration. She would like to propose her approach as a first step to offer light-weighted alternatives to classical overnight polysomnography (PSG). She could show that even with a reduced set of parameters mean agreement ratios of sleep phases detection can lead to promising results. The work has been supervised in cooperation by Prof Dr. Ralf Seepold (HTWG Konstanz) and Prof. Dr. Thomas Penzel (Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin).
