During the last week of February, a delegation from the University of Warwick, comprising Dr. Davide Piaggio, Mr. Pedro Checa, and Dr. Lyla Latif, traveled to Shanghai, China, for a SJTU-Warwick Joint Seed Fund Project focusing on health data, regulations, and security. They participated in a conference co-hosted by SJTU, Warwick, and Duan Duan Law Firm, offering insights into medical device regulations, sustainability, and digital health. Additionally, they engaged with SJTU students through lectures. This event sets the stage for a forthcoming workshop at Warwick in June, which will involve a delegation from Shanghai.

The GATEKEEPER project, spanning over four years, aimed to develop and validate an artificial intelligence-based platform for active and healthy aging. Led by Prof. Leandro Pecchia, Dr. Giuseppe Fico, and Medtronic, the project brought together a diverse consortium of universities, research centers, and companies.
Other members of the ABSPIE Lab were key elements for the successful delivery of the project (Dr Piaggio, Dr Maccaro, Dr Pagliara, Dr Haleem).
Despite challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the project achieved fruitful results.

A Warwick Industrial Fellowship was awarded to Dr Davide Piaggio and Giacomo Pratesi (CTO, Paperbox Health)
