Call for Papers: EHB 2017 - IEEE International Conference on e-Health and Bioengineering

22 - 24 June 2017, Sinaia, Romania.
The 6-th edition of the International Conference on e-Health and Bioengineering, EHB 2017, will take place in the city of Sinaia, Romania. This year the conference motto is "Developing technologies for a better tomorrow", the sub-domains and topics of medical bioengineering and biomedical engineering represent fundamental pillars for the reinforcement of medical research and of health care.

The main objective of EHB 2017 is to cover a broad spectrum of up-to-date topics of e-Health and Medical Bioengineering/Biomedical Engineering by giving the opportunity to scientists from diverse fields to participate in the presentation, discussion and evaluation of the latest advances, research challenges, and opportunities in hardware/software technologies, medical devices/instrumentation, biosignal and image processing, biomaterials, biomechanics, biotechnologies, bioinformatics, micro and nanotechnologies, systems biology or virtual physiological human (and this list is not exhaustive). Active participation from research scientists, students, business professionals, and medical system leaders is also expected to generate productive ideas, links between industry and academia and partnerships for national and European programs, of which Horizon 2020 is of special importance.
