Health in Context: A Course in Multilevel Modelling11th to 15th April 2016, Utrecht, Netherlands.
 Public health and health services research increasingly uses a statistical technique called multilevel modelling or multilevel analysis (MLA).

In this course we clarify what MLA is about and why it is important to take both shared contexts and individuals into account when undertaking public health and health services research... weiterlesen

DIGICARE - the 1st Euroseminar to Face the Digital Revolution in Healthcare
12th April 2016, Brussels, Belgium.
Digital revolution is radically changing how European citizens are living and facing their social and health care habits: a recent Eurobarometer Survey showed that 6 out of 10 Europeans had looked for their health information on the internet in 2014.
The rationale for this seminar is to provide a cross road to discuss key “hot topics” that are going to involve European citizens, private industries, governments, institutions, medical associations and healthcare providers in the near future and coagulate different interests around the huge potential to use the digital power to improve the healthcare of European citizens and future

Anatomy of a Murder: How Responsive Web Design Changed the Face of the Web We Experience
 The way we use the web has changed over the years and so has the technology that comes with this behavioral change. To get an address or a telephone number we simply hit up google and perform a search. 50% of the time we do so, we do it via our mobile devices, on the bus, micro-breaking at work, cyber-loading on the couch at home, you name it: everywhere at any time! This trend is so prevalent that Google has begun to boost the ratings of sites that are mobile friendly if the search was made from a mobile device. This has the net effect of penalizing sites that are not mobile friendly... read more
