Special Session in IASTED BioMED 2008 - Advances in Medical Decision Support Systems
February 13 – 15, 2008
Innsbruck, Austria

Innsbruck is nestled in the valley of the Inn River and tucked between the Austrian Alps and the Tuxer mountain range. It has twice hosted the Winter Olympics and is surrounded by the eight ski regions of the Olympic Ski World, including the Stubai Glacier, which offers skiing year round.
