Description

Resumen/Abstract
 

The population of older adults is growing at a rate that is not matched by the resources available to take care of them. Therefore, new ways of ageing that harness the power of new technologies should be explored and investigated. The Center for Elderly Care and Nursing Home Medicine of the University of Bergen is working on developing a new ageing paradigm based on digital phenotyping with wearable devices and Artificial Intelligence and exploring innovative community-based elderly residences.
