Advanced Data Visualizations and Storytelling

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV5qwfsW1Bw&ab_channel=Devoxx
As a speaker at Voxxed Days Thessaloniki 2018, Devoxx Athens 2019, and Devoxx Belgium 2019 in Antwerp, I delivered a presentation on how to use data to tell stories. The emphasis was on data science, data visualization, and data storytelling, with projects related to genomic variations, mathematics, science, elections, and real estate being presented.

Patent for a System for Providing Health Advice to Subjects

https://patentscope.wipo.int/search/en/detail.jsf?docId=WO2017032635&_cid=P12-LG18QF-23880-1
I was one of the inventors of the US patent, number PCT/EP2016/069366. The invention relates to a system, mobile device, processing device, method, and computer program for providing health advice to a subject. The activity sensor determines the subject's activity level during the first period. The activity evaluation unit compares the activity level with at least one activity threshold. The categorization unit enables the subject to assign an activity to the specified first period. The advice-providing unit provides health advice to the subject based on the activity evaluation unit's comparison and the assigned activity. The system is not limited to activity sensors but can comprise sensors of other vital parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, or glucose level.

Integration of Medical Devices into National Healthcare IT Infrastructure

https://www.hl7.nl/downloads/category/12-highlights-magazine.html?download=67:highlights-magazine-7
As a speaker at eHealth Forum 2014, organized by the EU Commission in Athens, I spoke about integrating the Philips Motiva telehealth platform into British NHS IT infrastructure. This was followed by a paper on the interconnection of Philips Motiva and Catharina Hospital Eindhoven using CDA and a report on integrating Philips Motiva into Dutch and German national healthcare infrastructure.
