The iHomeLab has been conducting research on the above-mentioned topics since 1997 and is able to contribute to the following Horizon Europe CLUSTER Health calls as an innovative and agile research partner:
Destination 1. Staying healthy in a rapidly changing society
-
HORIZON-HLTH-2023-STAYHLTH-01-01: The Silver Deal - Person-centred health and care in European regions.
We are able to contribute solutions and expertise from our long experience with EU-AAL Community projects.
Destination 2. Living and working in a health-promoting environment
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-ENVHLTH-02-02: Evidence-based interventions for promotion of mental and physical health in changing working environments (post-pandemic workplaces).
Destination 3. Tackling diseases and reducing disease burden
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-DISEASE-03-01: Novel approaches for palliative and end-of-life care for non-cancer patients.
Thanks to the completion of a European research project dealing with AAL solutions for the end of life, we are well connected with the actors in this field (user organisations, care organisations and providers of technical solutions).
Destination 4. Ensuring access to innovative, sustainable and high-quality health care
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-CARE-04-02: Resilience and mental wellbeing of the health and care workforce.
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-CARE-04-03: Environmentally sustainable and climate neutral health and care systems.
Destination 5. Unlocking the full potential of new tools, technologies and digital solutions for a healthy society
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-TOOL-05-03: Integrated, multi-scale computational models of patient patho-physiology (‘virtual twins’) for personalised disease management.
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-TOOL-05-04: Better integration and use of health-related real-world and research data, including genomics, for improved clinical outcomes.
- HORIZON-HLTH-2023-TOOL-05-05: Harnessing the potential of real-time data analysis and secure Point-of-Care computing for the benefit of person-centred health and care delivery.
Destination 6. Maintaining an innovative, sustainable and globally competitive health industry
-
HORIZON-HLTH-2023-IND-06-01: Supporting the uptake of innovative Health Technology Assessment (HTA) methodology and advancing HTA expertise across EU.
