About this book

This book gathers peer-review contributions to the 7th International Workshop on Gerontechnology, IWoG 2024, held on November 28, 2024, in Évora, Portugal. They report on cutting-edge technologies and optimized workflows for promoting active aging and assisting older adults at home, as well as in healthcare centers. They discuss the main challenges in the development, use and delivery of health care services and technologies. Besides proposing solutions for improving monitoring and management of health parameters and age-related diseases, the chapters also describe approaches for helping seniors in their daily tasks and facilitating their communication and integration with assistive technologies. All in all, this book provides health professionals, researchers, and service providers with extensive information on the latest trends in the development and application of gerontechnology, with a special emphasis on improving quality of life and social integration of the elderly.

Biomaterials: Silver Jubilee Compendium
The journal <b>Biomaterials</b> was launched in 1980. The subject of biomaterials science was then in its infancy, being largely cofined to the study of the characteristics of materials used for medical devices.Twenty-five years on, we can truly say that biomaterials science has matured at an incredible rate and now represents a formidable sector that bridges the materials sciences, advanced medical therapies, and molecular and cell sciences.This <b>Silver Jubilee Compendium</b> consists of reprinted versions of the top 25 papers, published during these 25 years, as judged by an international panel of biomaterials scientists.This book is published as a landmark in biomaterials science and it is to be hoped that it will serve as a stimulus to young biomaterials scientists of the early twenty-first century for their pioneering work of the future.

Medical Biosensors for Point of Care (Poc) Applications
<p><i>Medical Biosensors for Point of Care (POC) Applications</i> discusses advances in this important and emerging field which has the potential to transform patient diagnosis and care. Part 1 covers the fundamentals of medical biosensors for point-of-care applications. Chapters in part 2 go on to look at materials and fabrication of medical biosensors while the next part looks at different technologies and operational techniques. The final set of chapters provide an overview of the current applications of this technology.</p> <p>Traditionally medical diagnostics have been dependent on sophisticated technologies which only trained professionals were able to operate. Recent research has focused on creating point-of-care diagnostic tools. These biosensors are miniaturised, portable, and are designed to be used at the point-of-care by untrained individuals, providing real-time and remote health monitoring. </p>

Chitosan Based Biomaterials Volume 2: Tissue Engineering and Therapeutics
<p><i>Chitosan Based Biomaterials: Tissue Engineering and Therapeutics, Volume 2, </i>provides the latest information on chitosan, a natural polymer derived from the marine material chitin. Chitosan displays unique properties, most notably biocompatibility and biodegradability. It can also be easily tuned to modify its structure or properties, making chitosan an excellent candidate as a biomaterial. Consequently, chitosan is being developed for many biomedical functions, ranging from tissue engineering and implant coatings to drug and gene delivery. This book provides readers with a full coverage of the applications of chitosan-based biomaterials. </p>
