EASyM European Association of Systems Medicine 3rd Conference
2021-11-09 10:00 - 2021-11-12 19:30 (Europe/Berlin) | Online Congress
UPDATE: According to the European Association of Systems Medicine, the 3rd EASYM Conference has been postponed to Spring 2022. The precise dates of the event, to be held in Barcelona, will be announced.
(maintained were 2021 EASYM ACADEMIC EVENT & GENERAL ASSEMBLY: The training program (tutorials) run on 9th November 2021 from 09:00 to 16:30, followed by one-hour academic session and the day ended with the General Assembly)
EASyM 3rd Meeting 2022 (postponed from 2021): “Systems approaches to Global Challenges”: EASYM (European Association of Systems Medicine) was founded in September 2015 and therefore celebrated its 5th birthday last year. Many things have happened in these past five years. The Systems Medicine approaches have been broadly incorporated in the academic arena and its principles are progressively embedded into ongoing translational research programs. They have led to a better understanding of disease mechanisms, as well as to better capture the nature of disease interactions, paving the way for new therapies. Moreover, Systems Medicine is contributing to define novel strategies aiming at optimizing health value generation.
For Systems Medicine to be able to radically change health care still large steps have to be taken. This is why EASYM thinks it is important to bring together all stakeholders in the field (biologists, computational scientists, clinical researchers, practicing clinicians and managers) to discuss and work together on methodology, interpretation of data and implementation of results in clinical care.
To be able to bring these stakeholders together, EASYM considers pivotal to organize a 2-yearly networking event with a strong program to inspire and to give people the opportunity to discuss and brainstorm together. Furthermore, EASYM wants to play a role in training scientists working in the field of Systems Medicine and educating clinicians to promote clinical practicalities of the approach. Finally, EASYM wants to include young scientists in these efforts and has therefore installed a junior board to advise the board what they need to be successful in the field.

9th Bavarian Public Health Conference 2021 - One Health / Eine Gesundheit
2021-09-22 10:00 - 2021-09-24 19:00 | Online Congress
One Health / Eine Gesundheit – Lessons from the Pandemic
Also in Germany public health promotion and prevention of disease for risk groups based on efficient data analysis and targeted digitally enabled actions is one of the goals of public health services. In Bavaria it was recognised, that the European diversity offers unique chances for mutual learning.
The 9th Bavarian Congress for Public Health Services is set to present “One Health – Learnings from the pandemic”. This years’ One Health approach included topics from different areas all leading to and being influential to achieve a comprehensive One Health of the population. The Bavarian Health and Food Safety Authority scheduled sessions on actions to promote and prevent SARS-CoV-2 spreading in schools, infectiology and infection epidemiology, strategies of vaccination and testing and follow-up, climate change and bio-aerosols, childrens health in the context of the pandemic, and specific lessons learnt in the pandemic for health services improvement and research.
In Germany, not only the pandemic underlined that public health promotion and prevention of disease for risk groups and the general population, which is based on efficient data analysis, as well as targeted, digitally-enabled actions and tools is among the most important goals of public health services. In Bavaria it was recognised, that the European diversity offers unique chances for mutual learning also in this respect.
The EU Joint Action “JADECARE” enables the transfer and adoption of best practice models for integrated digitally enabled person-centred care to health care communities in different European countries and at the same time supports capacity building of ministries of health to achieve and perform sustainable digital health systems transformation towards integrated person-centred care.
JADECARE thus provided a source of experiences and tools for a successful digital transformation also to national or regional public health services.

EHMA 2021 "Health Management: Managing the present and shaping the future"
2021-09-15 09:00 - 2021-09-17 18:00 | Lisbon (hybrid), Portugal
Annual Conference 2021 of the European Health Management Association (EHMA)
Over the last year, health systems across Europe have encountered the most difficult times for a generation. Throughout the world, health services buckled under the strain of COVID-19, confronting enormous challenges around hospital capacity and workforce planning during a pandemic. As managers are pondering whether there will be a return to a ‘new normal’, important questions will be asked about how to increase the resilience and readiness of health systems whilst also providing high-quality routine care catching up on the backlog of many months of missed operations. Health management will be at the centre of providing solutions for these unprecedented difficulties. Bringing practitioners, researchers and academics together to share solutions has never been more important than today.
EHMA Annual Conference 2021 is organised by EHMA in collaboration with the Associação Portuguesa de Administradores Hospitalares (APAH) and its academic partners, the Escola Nacional de Saúde Pública and the Universidade Nova: Nova School of Business and Economics. The conference brings together experts from across the world to discuss solutions to managing services in the post-COVID future. The EHMA Annual Conference is widely considered the preeminent place to share experiences, skills and competencies in the field of health management. It is a place for all healthcare stakeholders to come together, discuss current topics and exchange innovation and best practices.
The JADECARE Joint Action will present its approach for transfering and enabling the adoption of best practice models for integrated digitally-enabled person-centred care to health care institutions and networking communities in different parts of Europe to foster and ensure the health and well-being of European citizens. We look forward to (virtually) seeing you at Lisbon!

The VIII Digital Congress on Digital health, "The San Sebastian International Digital Health Congress (e-health Donostia)"
2021-09-06 10:00 - 2021-09-10 19:00 | San Sebastian, Basque Country, Spain
The San Sebastian International Digital Health Congress has been held continuously since 2014. In 2021, its eighth edition approaches the theme of Value-Based Digital Health: The recent health crisis has caused a global crisis, affecting society in all areas. We must take advantage of what we have learned to consolidate value-based practices and address the opportunities for improvement that have been identified.
One of the priorities identified was undoubtedly the need for a digital transformation in health. Digital Health is a reality in our environment, but there is still a long way to go. We must reflect on whether the current scenario is adapted to the present and future needs of users, and what would be the most appropriate strategies to meet these needs in the coming years. The new virtual format of the congress since 2020 facilitates the attendance of people from all over the world, allowing the sharing of experiences and lessons learned from different environments. By working together, we can move faster and go further.

European Respiratory Society: Enabling Next Generation Medicine
2021-09-05 10:00 - 2021-09-08 19:00 | Berlin
Digital transformation in practice: Enabling Next Generation Medicine
The European Respiratory Society (ERS) organizes the largest respiratory medicine meeting worldwide (average of 25.000 attendees). The current edition was held online due to the pandemics. The Congress Chair’s Symposium was devoted to digital transformation of healthcare with two specific aims: i) To present initiative developed for a personalised medicine through new medical technologies; and, ii) To discuss the implementation of digital resources to improve the care of respiratory patients.
Structure: Four lectures explained experiences of adoption of digital transformation of healthcare in real world settings, as well as potential offered by the new scenario, considering integrated care and personalized medicine as ultimate goals to be achieved.
JADECARE was presented in three out of the four lectures (1, 2 and 4).
Symposium motivation – It is well recognised by health policy makers, also increasingly by health professionals, that implementation of digitally-enabled integrated patient-centred care constitutes the way toward generating healthcare efficiencies and long-term sustainability of health and social care systems. Intrinsic complexities in the process of scalability of the approach are fully acknowledged and well-defined strategies to overcome barriers for scale-up are in place. Moreover, digital health transformation with a systems approach paves the way toward precision medicine. There is no doubt of the enormous potential generated by the technological progress over the last decade, but practicalities of its implementation and adoption by healthcare professionals are far from being solved. Adoption of effective and sustainable digital health strategies for management of patients requires a critical analysis of the tremendous evolution experienced by both technologies and conceptual frames over the last few years. The symposium will analyze key steps, and lessons learnt in each of them, from successful deployment experiences. The ultimate aim of the session is to contribute to shape future healthcare scenarios.”

ICIC21 “Realising the true value of Integrated Care”
2021-05-11 11:00 - 2021-05-20 19:00 | ICIC Virtual Conference
In 2021 the 21st International Conference on Integrated Care (ICIC21) “Realising the true value of Integrated Care” took place as a virtual conference, co-hosted by IFIC hubs and collaborative centres IFIC Scotland, IFIC Australia, IFIC Ireland, IFIC Canada and IFIC Latin America. The conference ran across the whole month of May taking place across various time zones.

Presenters pre-record their presentations and were available to all delegates to access in their own time. During the live sessions successful authors were asked to reduce the time of their presentation to key points and sessions were ran interactively hosted by two or more chairs leading a discussion with paper presenters. This was much more enjoyable for the viewer and more engaging from the audience for presenters by using this format.

Workshops were designed with the virtual audience in mind and for making the best use of digital technology and provides the best learning experience for attendees.
