International Conference on Complex Acute Illness
July 27-29, 2017 Milano, Italy
Politecnico Di Milano
The program for ICCAI promotes a seamless transition between basic science and clinical research, emphasizing trans-disciplinary interaction between physicians, basic scientists, mathematicians, computer scientists, physicists and engineers – all united with a passion of applying complexity science and advanced bedside monitoring to care for the critically ill patients. Traditional SCAI topics range from bio signal interpretation and advanced multidimensional monitoring of patients to modeling and computational systems biology approaches for modeling diseases and identifying potential therapeutic interventions. Invited speakers will present their cutting edge work. Abstract submissions are peered reviewed and, upon acceptance, presented either in oral or poster sessions.
