2017 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Healthcare and e-health(IEEE CICARE' 17) 

IEEE CICARE 2017 is the first Symposium of its kind, established since 2013, that brings together leading research and clinical scientists, engineers, practitioners, technology and solution providers to discuss state-of-the-art in theory and practice of computational intelligence, for addressing the growing scale and complexity of real-world healthcare and e-health problems. The Symposium will also feature Panel discussions to outline future research directions and challenges in this emerging multi-disciplinary field.
IEEE CICARE 2017 is being held as part of the IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI’2017), Honolulu, Hawaii, USA from Nov. 27 to Dec 1, 2017. The IEEE SSCI is a flagship annual international conference on computational intelligence sponsored by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society.
