Redesigning healthcare, biohacking our lives (IMEC ITF2014)Koen Kas
On our way to redesign healthcare, we will learn to combine different layers of our biological code (now in reading but soon in writing mode), data from visible and invisible sensors, and the connected Internet of Bodies/Things. These guardian angels will open up unseen opportunities for the way we deal with ourselves in health and disease. With DNA soon becoming the new software, combining biology, electronics, attractive design & smart communication will provide the tools to (bio)hack our lives.
Appropriate use of different (nano)technologies will convert us into health consumers, with our doctors as (virtual) coaches. This will move us away from current curative healthcare to precise, preventive and even augmented healthcare. But smart technologies and the data they generate, are just a tool. When not trusted by the established care provider, when not integrated and available in a personal data platform, healthcare will only be pseudo modernized. The real magic happens when these tools allow you to engage and change behaviour. But even in a rapidly automating world, we can’t automate such change. Or can we?
The Power of Sensors in health & healthcareD3 Consutling
In a series of reports we explore key digital health trends and related opportunities for technology companies, healthcare providers and patients-consumers. We take both an international and Flemish perspective, the latter based on interviews with local stakeholders. In this report we focus on sensor-based applications.

As Kahlil Gibran, the famous theologian once said, “Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but advancing what will be”. The advancement of technology seems to move at such a rate that even ‘before you blink’ a new innovation is already introduced. The smart phone was a breakthrough technology just a short time ago, and now, it is fully integrated into life’s everyday experience. It is almost a certainty that today’s medical innovations will follow suit.

People are reaching for their phones in everyday situations, so creating apps that meet their immediate and long term needs is the key to engage them. Wearable technologies are getting stronger every day and are beginning to act as more an extension of the user than the phone in their pocket. In this talk, we'll explore ways in which these new wearable solutions could interact with Liferay Portals.
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze the increasing economic feasibility of wearable electronics in health care applications. Rapid improvements in sensors, integrated circuits, transceivers, displays, mobile phones, and wireless networks are causing the cost to fall and the performance to rise for wearable applications. These slides analyze hand, head, and body worn electronics in detail including smart watches, wrist and finger devices, smart glasses and textiles, patches, and foot and arm wear. They also analyze a wide variety of sensors for collecting healthcare information including inertial, bio, chemical, and haptic sensors.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Fastword to the year 2014. Today we are seeing an explosion of wearables for fitness, for work and for everyday use
We know fitbit, jawbone up, Lark . Can I have a show of hands has one of these. There has been an explosion of smartwatch or smart wristbands on the market. I last counting more than 50.
This market is fulled by Intel’s acquisition of Basis for around a $100M.
This industry faces extreme competition. Nike has just announced that they are leaving the fuelband market and collaborating with Apple.
Importantly, a little know fact is that Apple’s M7 which is in every phone 5s, and the Samsun equivalent called the S health in the galaxy S5 can eliminate wristbands.
Companies have to move themselves out from the crowd. full disclosure I’m an investor in Lark which is a Start X companies. Julia Hu is an awesome CEO. Announce a partnership with Samsung.
Basis: Heart rate, skin temperature, perspiration, steps
In September the world held its breath as Tim Cook say one more thing. And revealed Apple watch. I held my breath too as I wonder would all my prediction about the future of wearables would be blown away by just one thing.
Headbands is a way to measure focus and concentration. With apps to measure and improve your focus. Muse at $300 has 7 eeg channles to high resolution measurement and also track beyong attention spance by measuring mood, brain acivity

Earphones are being manufactured with biometric sensors that can measure heart beat data.
Viton Health, Singapore-based startup makes firmware for devices that analyze heart beat data in a new way. Most health trackers and earphones on the market simply give you a measure of heart rate. VH’s tech goes beyond this -- directly assesses your health and measures deviation from optimal health level. Also provides feedback on how to improve.
Another interesting startup is Well Being Digital (Hong Kong). Also makes firmware for devices. Proprietary tech to calculate heart beat data. Infrared light shines on skin to calculate heart rate. But when you’re exercising, skin wobbles so light bouncing back is unpredictable. WBD removes the noise, resulting in much more accurate data measurement.

Eyewear is another cateogory that is emerging is eyewear and the most popular is the google glass.
Google glass is great but is is effective a 2ndscreen experience. On the other hand, VR provided by Oculus which just got bought up by Facebook for $2B
What is also interesting to me is to combination of the two as demonstrated by Meta. See an over lay aka heads up display
A lot has to be done. Remember Sarah Slocum, a lot has to be done to make these glasses

I have provided a mini over view of the state of art, but let’s now look at the trends in the wearables industry to see what might be some device that you or I will be using 5 years from now. I will be showing some devices that are already in the market, but they are a good indication about the new products to come.
Wearables for the aged. It is like the exoskeleton much like the suit used by the Iron Man.
Enable the immobile and aged to walk easily. Allow regular people or the military to carry heavy loads.
This suit from Cyberdyne a company that was IPO just end of March it’s share priced surges almost 2X.
Right after the smart writst bands and glasses, shirts can be the next big thing. Already we have omsignal, athos which raised $3M from social and capital. These are devices that can monitor our heart rate movement and importantly breathing. Eg, omsignal’s shirts has two piezo bands which during brea
Breathing is an important bodily function that we can actually override consciously and have significant impact over our bodily functions. The autonomic nervous system, which mean just like digestion, and may other metabolic activieis that we cannot control. Breathing is special because although part of the autonomic nervous system, it is one that when overrideen has profound impact on our wellness. Heart rate drops, heart rate variebility drops, prespiraiton drops. Stress dips.

thing the extension of the two bands laets thm measure your breathe volume, and regulatiry.
In the 70s, there were these pins that you could wear and inform others about your interests
Love rock, love hiking, you guys can get together sometimes. That is one idea
Then there is Ringblingz which changes colors bases on your cell notifications.
Here’s an idea. I would like to see a startup that caters to the Tween. Combine the location aware.
You can add a twist there you cannot see your own color.
And hey, they are wearables for babies too.
"New parents want to know how their baby is doing at all times," says Lipoma. "This can tell you if your baby is on her stomach or her back, if her temperature spikes, if she's moving around, and if she's breathing normally." That last factor, of course, is a major fear for parents, who worry about sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDs.
There is also the Tweet Pee by Huggies. It’s an experimental product out in the Brazil market where you literally can receive a tweet when the baby pees.
And there
http://mchips.com/products/products_drugdelivery.html
In drug delivery, there are several fundamental challenges:
•Long-term storage and protection of the compound
•Appropriate delivery (i.e., timing and pharmacokinetics)
•Release of precise amounts of a compound at desired intervals
•Compliance to prescribed therapy
Currently, the ideal drug is one that:
•Requires multiple microgram to milligram doses for treatment
•Can be stored in lyophilized or liquid form
•Is designed for injection delivery
Precise, long- term drug delivery can be achieved by using individual microreservoirs to store and hermetically protect the drug, microchip activation to release the drug, and telemetry to both control and communicate release. This creates the opportunity for more accurate dosing, reduced cost-of-care, improved patient compliance and, ultimately, improved patient outcomes.
MicroCHIPS, Inc. is pioneering intelligent implanted devices designed to improve the health of millions of people with chronic conditions that require careful monitoring and precise therapy.
Based on proprietary microreservoir technology first developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, MicroCHIPS' platform incorporates long-term implant technologies and wireless communications, as well as expertise in protein and peptide formulation for challenging delivery conditions.
The result is a device that can provide or enhance patient treatment without direct intervention by either the patient or caregiver. This has the potential to improve patients lifestyle and outcomes as well as reduce healthcare costs by delivering therapy outside of traditional point-of-care.
MicroCHIPS was founded with technology developed in the laboratories of Professor Michael Cima and Professor Robert Langer of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dr. Cima and Dr. Langer founded the company with Terry McGuire of Polaris Venture Partners and John Santini. With a management team experienced in launching innovative medical products, the company has attracted leading venture and corporate investors including: Polaris Venture Partners, Medtronic, Intersouth Partners, Flybridge Capital Partners, InterWest Partners, Novartis Venture Fund, CSK Ventures, Saints Capital, Care Capital and Boston University.
Here’s another niche. People who don’t mind implanting things under their skin. I predict that in 5 years time, implanting electronics under the skin will become more acceptable.

Google contacts provides glucose measurements
Tiggerfish project puts an inductive loop to power the contact, and transparent circuits made of graphene and silver nano wire for heads up display.
Smart contacrt will also be a way to dispense drugs. And contact will provide full field of view capacilities, rather tanwhat is affordable by google glassm
Smart contact lenses are no longer science fiction. In the last few years we have covered several smart contact lenses with different purposes. One of these electronic contact lenses is the Sensimed Triggerfish, a device capable of continuous measurement of the intra-ocular pressure (IOP). It is the first of its kind, since current measurements of IOP, like applanation tonometry and air-puff tonometry, can only give us the IOP at a certain moment, whereas the Triggerfish can monitor the course of the IOP throughoutthe day. As we write this, the Triggerfish is already being clinically tested.
Further on the horizon, the interplay of blood pressure (BP), intracranial pressure (ICP) and IOP may open the door to understanding the circadian ocular perfusion pressure and trans-lamina cribrosa pressure, both thought to be implicated in the pathophysiology of glaucoma.
But determining the correct drug treatment depends upon first knowing when during the day the intraocular pressure (IOP) peaks.
. “The standard today is to place patients in a laboratory for 24 hours,” says Mr Wismer. During this time a patient's IOP can be measured every few hours using a standard machine called a Goldmann tonometer. But although this approach can measure the IOP very effectively, it is unable to do so continuously.
An induction loop is used to power the device and to relay data from the lens to a receiver worn by the patient.
There will be wearable to complement pre-natal check up.
In high risk fetus of genetic disorder, typically an amniocentesis is performed to draw small amount of amniotic fluid for genetic tests on the cells from the fetus. However, this carries a 1% chance of miscarriage.
It is well known that cells from the unborn fetus travel to the mother’s blood stream. But these cells are very rare and you will need large amounts of mother’s blood to discover one in order to have whole genome sequencing. But with a suitable patch that causes a minor skin irriration, fetal cells can be concentrated and lifted for genetic diagnosis.
An extremely costly item on our health tech is the lack of compliance and the attempt to mitigate. There are sms dservices or people call. But a sell monitoring
This idea of edible technology has crossed over from sci-fi to reality to address the troubling fact that over half of all drugs worldwide are prescribed, dispensed, or sold inappropriately, according to the World Health Organization.
Last July, the Food and Drug Administration approved Proteus Digital Health's ingestible biosensor and its companion patch as the world's first "smart pill" system, Helius. The pill is embedded with a tiny sensor made from silicon and natural ingredients.
The patients are taking blood pressure drug Diovan and the study organizers track their compliance via Proteus’ “chip in the pill” technology, which reports to a receiver sensor on the patient’s shoulder when the medication has been ingested. The study has improved compliance from 30 percent to 80 percent after six months, according to Novartis.
The charge is detected through the patient’s body by a sensing patch on the patient’s skin. The patch records the time and date that the pill is digested and also measures some vitals like heart rate, activity and respiratory patterns. The information is then sent to the patient’s mobile phone and then onto the internet for caregivers to review and analyze.
Proteus’ Raisin technology runs on an electric charge generated by the patient’s stomach acid.
At Proteus we believe that the drug is the plug. Proteus makes a computer chip made from food ingredients specifically designed to be co-manufactured with drugs at ultra-low cost. Proteus-enabled products deliver medicine combined with information, education and motivation at prices that are highly affordable for health systems and consumers.

How big is the ingestible sensor? What is it made of?
The sensor resembles a grain of sand in size and make-up—measuring 1mm square and made mostly of silicon.
Does the ingestible sensor contain a battery?
The ingestible sensor does not contain a battery; it contains two conductive materials, one on either side. When these get wet in your stomach, they power the sensor for a short amount of time. This works just like a potato battery.
Seed Sensor 2011-ongoing
The ‘Seed Sensor’ is a swallowable device that detects gas fluctuations in the body (methane, carbon dioxide etc) that may be a symptom of undiagnosed disease. The ‘seed’ is a swallowable tablet that unfolds like a flower once in the small intestine deploying a sensitive membrane which captures particles of gas as it moves through the digestive tract. The aim of the project is to achieve a less invasive biomedical application where current applications are still relatively rudimentary. The form and user interface of the Seed Sensor are being designed through an art practice approach that utilises iterative models and workshop-style hands-on brainstorming to generate possible forms for the device.

We will see camera pills that check out inide.
The evolution of camera pills
Just as the smartphone was an evolutionary step up from the digital camera, smart pills represent the evolution of capsule endoscopy -- those tiny camera pills that were approved by the FDA more than a decade ago. Camera pills are generally used to record videos for gastrointestinal treatments, but they lack Proteus' sophisticated sensors.
Given Imaging (NASDAQ: GIVN ) , a major manufacturer of camera pills, recognized this market shift and acquired SmartPill Corporation's Smart Pill GI Monitoring System last October for $6 million. The SmartPill uses sensors to measure pH levels, pressure, and temperature in the gastrointestinal tract. It can also measure total gastrointestinal transit times to better evaluate disorders like gastroparesis and constipation.
Demand for Given Imaging's pill technologies is rising; last quarter, the company reported that earnings and revenue rose 70.7% and 11.1%, respectively, from the prior-year quarter. Shares are up more than 30% over the past 12 months.
What kind of scientific breakthrough is needed is get us there
There’s a trend that wearables require knowledge from multiple disciplines in science. Let’s use the Smart Pill as an example that
(Health Science) Need pills to monitor body functions, especially in elderly who may forget to take medication. Can also track heart rate, mobility, sleep, etc. Replaces radiation.
(Hardware) Swallow the pill. Made of ingredients found in food and activates upon ingestion. Taken alongside medication to capture exact time of ingestion. Pill is slightly larger than multi-vitamin.
(Materials Science) No battery or antenna on pill. Stomach fluids (HCl) complete the power source (copper and magnesium) and body transmits number generated by sensor
(Hardware) Patch is worn on stomach , receives and captures info from pill—heart rate, activity, rest, etc.– sends info to mobile device
(Software) Securely access applications that display your data in context and support care in variety of ways
Alme for healthcare combines an intricate natural language model with the simple, friendly interface of an avatar - or virtual health assistant (VHA)- to drive interactive conversations with users on their channel of choice.
The tool is currently targeted at pharmaceutical companies, healthcare providers, government organizations and accountable care organizations. Next IT hopes that they will then make its tools available to consumers.

The Diabetes Neckpiece is a wearable applicator device to apply Nanotechnology Victoria’s NanoMAPs to the skin. NanoMAPs are small (10 x 2mm) circular discs which have an array of micro needles on their surface. They allow for pain-free delivery of insulin to the body, replacing syringes. The Diabetes Rings work in conjunction with the Diabetes Neckpiece. The rings are designed to keep the nano engineered insulin patches against the skin once they have been applied. They are designed as discreet housings for therapeutics. Philosophically, they question how we might ‘enable’ our favourite jewellery/artefacts with functionality above and beyond the aesthetic.The Diabetes Jewellery project was developed through my Subtle Technologies residency with Nanotechnology Victoria in 2007-8.
