We are glad and honored to invite you to join the 11th edition of the IEEE International Conference on e-Health and Bioengineering, EHB 2023 on 9-10 November 2023, which will take place online and in person in Bucharest, Romania. This year, the conference motto is “Innovation for a better healthcare", and we have to stress that medical bioengineering and biomedical engineering reinforce medical research and health care.

This conference is mainly dedicated to e-health systems, medical bioengineering, biomedical engineering, and related fields. The specific aim and objectives are to promote concepts and advanced hardware and software technologies in the emerging domains of e-health, medical devices and instrumentation, biosignal and image processing, medical informatics, biomechanics, biomaterials, biotechnologies, medical physics, healthcare management, teaching and (e)learning, rehabilitative and assistive technologies, and new disciplines, such as bioinformatics, systems biology, and virtual physiological humans.

In this respect, some of the prominent future challenges in modern medicine are: prosthetic arms, new medical devices and bioinstrumentation for non-invasive diagnosis and treatment, image-guided robotic instruments for surgical interventions, computer and telecom-aided medical intervention, new and multimodal imaging techniques used to see human organs and sub-cells structures, intelligent systems and technologies in rehabilitation engineering, a new kind of ambulance equipped for complete diagnosis and communications facilities, new telemedicine and e-health services, and new home self-care options.

Dear Colleagues, you are all invited to EHB 2023!

We are pleased to announce that the 3^rd edition of the Single-Molecule Sensors and NanoSystems International Conference (S3IC 2023) chaired by Professor Frank Vollmer and Professor Felix Ritort, will be held in Barcelona from 22 to 24 November 2023. You can learn more about the conference here:

Sensor systems exhibit extraordinary sensitivity for detecting physical, chemical, and biological entities at the micro/nanoscale. The detection and analysis of molecules on miniature devices that have many possible applications in health, environment, analysis, and security is particularly exciting. A new class of label-free micro and nanosensors is starting to emerge allowing us to observe dynamic processes at the single-molecule level directly, with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution and without significantly affecting the natural and functional movements of the molecules. Micro- and nanosensors by virtue of their small interaction length probe molecules over a dynamic range are often inaccessible using other techniques. Their small size enables an exceedingly high sensitivity, and the application of quantum optical measurement techniques can allow us to approach or surpass classical limits of detection. Advances in optical and electrical measurement methodology, laser interferometry, quantum optics, micro/nanofluidics, control of molecules and reactions at the nanoscale, DNA origami/synthetic molecular machines, and in vivo and wearable sensing materials all contribute to the rapid progress of the field of Single-Molecule Sensors and nanoSystems. It is this convergence of previously often disparate fields that is accelerating the advancements in micro and nano-sensing.

This conference will bring together researchers in the rapidly advancing field of Single-Molecule Sensors and nanoSystems. The conference focusses on the most recent advances in micro and nano-sensing techniques that have either demonstrated single-molecule detection or that claim single-molecule detection capability on sensor chips in the longer term.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Single-Molecule Spectroscopy, Imaging, and Forces.
• Micro/Nanofluidics/Chemical control at the Nanoscale.
• Molecular Machines, Synthetic Biology, and DNA Origami.
• Single-molecule Sensors and Sequencers.
• Molecular Electronics.
• From Quantum Sensing to Quantum Biology.
• Nanothermodynamics in experiments and theory.
• Computational approaches.

Important Dates:

• Early bird Submission: June 30th, 2023
• Early bird Registration: July 28th, 2023
• Submission: September 22nd, 2023
• Notification to authors: October 16th, 2023

Over the last decade, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have been increasingly adopted in various domains, such as healthcare, finance, and transportation. However, the lack of transparency and interpretability in AI/ML models has resulted in a growing demand to make them more understandable to humans. This is crucial for ensuring effective collaboration between humans and AI systems, and for ensuring regulatory compliance. Therefore, the upcoming CXAI workshop aims to address these challenges by providing a platform for AI/ML researchers and practitioners from various countries to share their recent research outcomes and experiences in causal inference/discovery and interpretable/explainable AI. The workshop will take place on 4 Dec 2023 and will focus on improving transparency and interpretability in AI/ML models for real-world applications.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Structure learning and causal discovery;
• Causal inference and Bayesian networks;
• Counterfactual reasoning;
• Interpretable machine learning;
• Explainable methods;
• Model interpretability;
• Feature importance;
• Prediction interpretation and justification;
• Responsible and trustable AI;
• Ethical AI;
• Causal models and other methods for ML model interpretation and justification;
• Model visualisation and conveying decisions to end users;
• Applications of causal and explainable AI in the environment, agriculture, energy, engineering, education, finance, marketing, medicine, health and other domains.
