Project Description

Our modern society is today threatened by an incipient healthcare delivery crisis caused by current demographic and lifestyle trends. On the one hand the world’s population is aging quickly, resulting in an increased prevalence of cardiac and neurological disorders. On the other hand, our busy lifestyles leave little time and motivation for fitness, healthy diet management and mental wellness, and are fuelling the rise of the number of people unsuspectingly developing, or living with, chronic cardiovascular and neurological conditions for decades.
