As Health Intelligence Network.Gent, we bring together diverse expertise in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and health to renew education, drive groundbreaking research, and responsibly implement AI innovations in the healthcare sector. My scope is in "community building" and "innovations and applications"

As human Healthcare is evolving from only the cure and care model to cure-care & enhancement model it is necessary to stay on top of things.Therefore we introduced a mindset called "Smart Space UZ Ghent" where people with a special interest in implementing (new) technology in healthcare can "lay their egg". This could be app design, robotics, VR & AR, sensorbased technology, telerehabilitation, blockchain applications, ... .Smart Place Rehabilitation is the cornerstone of this project… Show more As human Healthcare is evolving from only the cure and care model to cure-care & enhancement model it is necessary to stay on top of things.Therefore we introduced a mindset called "Smart Space UZ Ghent" where people with a special interest in implementing (new) technology in healthcare can "lay their egg". This could be app design, robotics, VR & AR, sensorbased technology, telerehabilitation, blockchain applications, ... .Smart Place Rehabilitation is the cornerstone of this project with a GRAIL system as fundament. GRAIL is a total package solution for gait analysis and gait training, which employs an instrumented dual-belt treadmill, a motion-capture system and Virtual Reality (VR) environments. On this platform we want to improve our clinical rehabilitation activities, do translational research but also design new rehabilitation products in the near future. Show less

Set the spark for XR use in healthcare for patients as well as healthcare workers and students is my major ambition!
