This spring Dartmouth's Institute for Security, Technology, and Society (ISTS) will host the third workshop on *Securing Information Technology in Healthcare (*SITH3 <http://www.ists.dartmouth.edu/events/sith3/>*)*. This invitation-only workshop builds on the success of the first two SITH workshops in 2010 <http://www.ists.dartmouth.edu/events/sith/> and 2012<http://www.ists.dartmouth.edu/events/sith2/>, which brought together experts from many disciplines to discuss security and privacy in information systems for healthcare. This field continues to evolve extremely rapidly, and this year the workshop will focus on the especially exciting field of *mHealth – the application of mobile computing technologies to health and wellness.* On *16-17 May 2013*, experts in mHealth will convene at the Tuck School of Business on the Dartmouth campus for a series of presentations and panel discussions covering a range of topics focused on mHealth applications in the evolving healthcare setting. We plan four panels <http://www.ists.dartmouth.edu/events/sith3/> to address several challenging topics: - The intersection of mHealth and behavioral health - Evolving business models in mHealth - Opportunities for mHealth in the developing world - Challenges in securing mHealth infrastructure Our morning keynote speaker will be Wendy Nilsen<http://obssr.od.nih.gov/about_obssr/staff/wendy_nilsen_bio.aspx>, a Health Science Administrator at the NIH Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research. Our welcome dinner will include a presentation by Patty Mechael <http://mhealthalliance.org/about/staff>, Executive Director of the mHealth Alliance. Through funding from Dartmouth College and the National Science Foundation we are able to cover some costs for invited participants. The workshop is free, and travel stipends of up to $500 will be provided. To be considered for an invitation, please send the organizers a one-page position paper that discusses your interest and background as it relates to mHealth. Both practitioners and researchers are welcome and encouraged to submit! The position paper is due by *April 1*, and we will select and invite participants by *April 15*. If you have any questions, please contact the workshop sponsors at ISTS<[email protected]> . Many thanks, David Kotz Champion International Professor Dartmouth College PS.
