On 6 September 2022, BioAlps and Biopôle will organise the Deep Dive into Quantified Self event in Epalinges, Vaud. The theme of the event is “Quantified Self | Challenges and opportunities of innovation applied to personal health”. Quantified Self is defined as the self-monitoring activity which makes use of new data collection and analysis technologies applied to personal health measurements. 

The event will gather experts from Western Switzerland’s digital health ecosystem from academia, R&D, industry, regulations and investment. Key companies will share their experience with regards to the choices they have made for the development of their technologies and why. These presentations will be followed by a roundtable with top experts providing further insights into major challenges and opportunities that affect innovation in the field of self-tracking and data-driven health.
