Five research groups from the UJI and four companies from Espaitec have presented their work on the application of information and communication technologies in the healthcare field

The multipurpose room of the Espaitec 2 building hosted the event this morning ICT applied to health developed at the Universitat Jaume I: research, keys, trends and solutions marketed by Espaitec companies. A day of dissemination and technology transfer organized by the Office of Cooperation in Research and Technological Development (OCIT) and the Scientific, Technological and Business Park of the UJI (Espaitec).

During the presentation ceremony of the day Ismael Rodrigo, director of the OCIT, has highlighted the trajectory of the UJI in the application of information and communication technologies in the health field. In his speech he highlighted how some research groups dedicated to health, especially in the field of psychology, have seen an opportunity in technologies and have expanded their research. Likewise, groups of technological origin have found a range of opportunities in health, focusing their research in recent years on this line.

Meanwhile david cabedo, academic director of Espaitec, has highlighted the importance of this type of meetings between research groups and companies to guarantee the third mission of the university focused on the transfer of knowledge. Along these lines, he recalled that Espaitec has launched e'Joint4Challenge, an online platform that aims to connect the needs of medium and large companies in Castellón with the human talent, innovation and technology existing in startups and research groups of the Universitat Jaume I.

The event included the participation of five research groups from the Universitat Jaume I. Oscar Belmonte, coordinator of Research Group on Machine Learning for Smart Environments, has been the first to intervene by presenting the Senior Monitoring project, a solution focused on non-invasive monitoring for the care of the elderly. Next, Edgar Bresó, coordinator of the Emotionally Intelligent Organizations Research group, has presented new methodologies for the development of emotional intelligence through mobile applications.

Enric Cervera, researcher at the UJI Intelligent Robotics Laboratory, was next presenting a pilot case of using the humanoid robot to help learn communication skills in children with ASD. Azucena García Palacios, researcher at the Laboratory of Psychology and Technology (LABSITEC), has been the fourth researcher who has intervened by announcing an application that improves the evaluation and intervention in chronic pain. To end, Micaela Moro, coordinator of the Neuropsychology and disability research group, has presented BECAD, an online tool to assess disability and dependency and guide rehabilitation.

The second part of the day focused on learning about the technologies related to digital health developed and marketed by Espaitec companies. Rafael ForcadaCEO Actualmed has presented Actualpacs, a secure medical image archiving and management platform used by radiologists nationally and internationally. Next, Guillermo Rodriguez, R&D&i director of Biotics Biochemistry Analytical, has presented Legiolab, the first automated equipment capable of analyzing legionella in situ, which is the result of an H2020 project. Next, Susana Aceituno Mata, Associate Director of the company Outcomes'10, has spoken about tools to help shared decision-making between the healthcare professional and the patient. Finally Alba Diaz, the director of the biomedical department of Rithmi has made a presentation based on the benefits of continuous monitoring in the detection of atrial fibrillation.

The day has been closed by Jesus Lancis, vice-rector for Research and Doctorate at the Jaume I, who has highlighted the trajectory of these conferences and their importance in promoting the transfer of knowledge and technology between UJI research groups and companies linked to Espaitec and the rest of the provincial business fabric. The event has the support of the Department of Education, Research, Culture and Sports of the Generalitat Valenciana and is part of a set of communication actions organized by Espaitec to promote the dissemination of science and technology in the province of Castellón.

During this presentation event, Ismael Rodrigo, OCIT's Manager, stressed UJI's commitment to apply ICT to the health domain. During his speech, he highlighted how some research groups working on health matters, particularly in the psychology field, saw the opportunity in such technologies and extended their research. Some technology-based groups found a wide range of opportunities in health and have focused their latest research on this area.

David Cabedo, Espaitec's Academic Director, stressed the importance of these encounters between research groups and firms to ensure the third university mission that centers on knowledge transfer. Along this line, I have reminded everyone that espaitec had set up e'Joint4Challenge, an online platform which aims to connect the requirements of medium- and large-sized companies from Castellón with existing human talent, innovation and technology in start-ups and research groups from the Universitat Jaume I.

Five UJI research groups participated in this event. Oscar Belmonte, the coordinator of the Research Group on Machine Learning for Smart Environments, was the first to take part and presented the Senior Monitoring Project, a solution focused on non-invasive monitoring to care for the elderly. Next Edgar Bresó, the coordinator of the research group Emotionally Intelligent Organizations, presented new methodologies to develop emotional intelligence via mobile applications.

Enric Cervera, a researcher from the UJI Intelligent Robotics Laboratory, was next to talk about the pilot case of using a humanoid robot to help children with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) learn communication skills. Azucena García Palacios, a researcher from the Psychology and Technology Laboratory (LABSITEC), was the fourth researcher who spoke about an application that improves assessments of and interventions in chronic pain. Finally, Micaela Moro, the coordinator of the Neuropsychology and Disability Research Group, presented BECAD, an online tool to evaluate disability and dependence, and to guide rehabilitation.
