ICTH is a premier venue for bringing together multi-disciplinary researchers, 
professionals and practitioners from academia and healthcare who are engaged in 
different facets of ICT and healthcare. The conference encourages innovative 
research contributions providing the recent significant developments and 
promising future trends of ICT based applications, systems, tools, environments 
and infrastructures in the fields of health/medical care, and related domains, 
such as public health and pharmaceuticals. Papers on either completed or 
ongoing research are invited in the following and related topics of interests.

Lund University is a strong influence on Lund city, and several university 
buildings are located in the heart of the city. The combination of businesses, 
students and researchers from around the world has given birth to Lund's unique 
character as a city of strong research-based global industries. The Malmö 
region, including Lund, is the 4th most inventive region in the world. 
Sweden’s first and most successful research park, Ideon, is situated in 
Lund, and the country’s two largest research ventures, MAX IV Laboratory 
and the European Spallation Source (ESS) are located here. The students at Lund 
University comprise a large part of the population of the city and consequently 
have a significant impact on it and contribute to the youthful, laid-back 
atmosphere. The young population influences all aspects of life in Lund, from 
the daily rhythm of the city, to city planning, pubs and bars, museums and 
countless cultural and leisure activities. The combination of old traditions 
and history together with the bustling student life makes Lund a great place to 
live and study!
