This workshop report is an overview of the Predictive Models in Personalized Medicine workshop held on Dec. 11, 2010 at 2010 Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS) Conference in Whistler, Canada. The workshop included 3 keynote talks and 6 oral and 5 poster presentations on peer reviewed submissions. The workshop also featured a panel discussion on the growing trends of the field. The workshop was very well received and attended. Based on the response and multiple requests received, it is planned to organize the workshop again at NIPS 2011.

This purpose of this article is to help the reader understand the research area of pervasive healthcare and pervasive healthcare computing. It defines the term, and discusses the 2011 conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare, held in Dublin, Ireland. In particular, it examines the workshops proposed for the conference, highlighting the current exploratory research on the fringe of the area of pervasive computing, before discussing the implications for mainstream healthcare.

In April 2010, the First International Workshop on Web Science and Information Exchange in the Medical Web took place in Raleigh / North Carolina. This workshop was devoted to the technologies for dealing with social- and multi media data for medical information gathering and exchange. The workshop served as a forum for the confluence of new and multidisciplinary ideas that will help to drive research in the areas of medical web text and data mining.

Around the world, tremendous sums of money and time are being spent modernizing the health care ecosystem to improve outcomes and reduce cost. One of the critical hypotheses behind many of these efforts is that the collection of electronic data, such as longitudinal electronic health records (EHRs), will enable tools that provide actionable insights about a patient's condition required to make more intelligent medical decisions. This data-driven vision promises to improve care in facilities ranging from emergency rooms to general practitioner offices.

Here we summarize the HealthAchieve 2010 event held November 8th-10th in Toronto, Canada. HealthAchieve is considered the definitive Canadian healthcare delivery experience conference. The insights garnered among attending delegates serves to expand the existing knowledge base and promote the need for research in healthcare to address respective enterprise gap deficiencies in delivery and quality. HealthAchieve 2010, illuminated delegate awareness to decentralization trends; health promotion and wellbeing initiatives; optimal delivery approaches; chronic disease management, primary prevention, evidence-based best practices; and fundraising strategies. The conference encouraged learning, relationship building, knowledge sharing, and the strengthening of existing partnerships.
