AffecTech - www.affectech.org - is an international research project progressing state-of-the art developments in mobile, wearable and personalised health technologies. It aims to deliver an effective low cost technology platform to help sufferers of affective health conditions (depression, anxiety & bipolar disorder).
AffecTech marks a significant shift from current wearable technologies capturing emotional responses that require interpreting by health professionals, towards a new self-help technology for visualising, exploring and regulating emotions in daily life.
Members of the AffecTech Consortium have recruited 15 Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) who are also enrolled as PhDs, and who are benefiting from a unique doctoral training programme to become the future generation of European researchers. AffecTech researchers intend to revolutionise affective health research and improve health care through innovative personalised technologies.
