The summer school was designed to bring together experts, students, companies, and researchers in an innovation ecosystem focused on the development of emerging technologies for the empowerment of older adults in healthcare and their social inclusion. The event offers a unique space for collaboration between industry, academia, and the healthcare sector, allowing companies to showcase their innovative technologies, generate strategic alliances, and enhance their impact in the digital health market. It is an opportunity to learn about the latest advances, methods, and challenges in the application of artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics, blockchain, telemedicine, diagnostic imaging, digital health, and medical devices applied to the care and inclusion of older adults.
It is a practical experience, based on real-life case studies implementing emerging technologies through workshops and laboratories where participants will learn to apply artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, robotics, telemedicine, blockchain, and digital health to senior care, integrated into a sustainable service within the healthcare ecosystem. During the Summer School, a hackathon and innovation challenges will be held to promote the creative process and develop real-life team solutions in interdisciplinary groups for the comprehensive well-being of seniors, with expert mentoring and prizes for the best ideas for future employment and entrepreneurship opportunities. This course is focused on promoting the integration of the different disciplines involved in senior healthcare and inclusion, as well as establishing international relationships for the development of global projects in the region.
The course aims to integrate current healthcare models with digital technologies, where understanding older adults in all their dimensions is crucial to properly utilizing emerging technologies in their care and social inclusion.
Factors such as cybersecurity, connectivity, interoperability, cloud services, and smart models must be considered to support decisions that promote healthy aging. Digital transformation must facilitate the autonomy of older adults, providing digital solutions that support their physical and emotional well-being.
The integration of diverse disciplines, such as health sciences, social sciences, and engineering, is promoted to address real-life problems faced by older adults. This approach utilizes innovative strategies supported by practical workshops, introducing them to technologies with the support of the clinical simulation center of the Faculties of Medicine and Nursing, and the modern laboratory infrastructure of the Faculty of Engineering of the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana.
It is essential that the inclusion and use of technologies promote good self-care and patient safety practices, taking into account ethical considerations, the protection of sensitive data, and compliance with the current regulatory framework. Furthermore, these technologies must be accessible from all levels within the organizations that make up the digital health ecosystem.
Objetivos
The objective of the Summer School is to introduce participants to the convergence processes of emerging technologies that drive the digital transformation of healthcare services and the social inclusion of older adults.
The initiative seeks to strengthen this care through the use of digital health ecosystems and advanced technologies, considering key elements such as cybersecurity, connectivity, interoperability, cloud services, and intelligent models. All of this is intended to support decision-making aimed at promoting healthy aging and greater integration of older adults into society.
Promote Knowledge of Emerging Technologies by training participants in understanding and using technologies that facilitate the care and attention of older adults in the context of digital health.
Create interdisciplinary collaboration networks, establishing connections between different disciplines and professionals to foster a comprehensive approach to older adult care, promoting the exchange of knowledge and experiences.
Develop cybersecurity and connectivity skills by providing participants with the necessary tools to ensure security and connectivity when using digital technologies, ensuring data protection and accessibility for older adults.
Promote Service Interoperability by demonstrating to participants the importance of interoperability in healthcare services, facilitating the integration of different platforms and systems for more efficient and coordinated care.
Implement Smart Care Models by training participants in the use of models that support decision-making in older adult care, improving quality of life and promoting healthy aging.
Promote the social inclusion of older adults through strategies that foster the autonomy of older adults in their interactions within the community, using digital technologies that facilitate their active participation and empowerment.

Methodology
Academic content
Module 1: Future Technologies: Innovation in the Service of Older Adults:
Description: In this module, students will explore emerging technologies applied to older adult care, such as telemedicine, wearable devices, artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, medical device design and evaluation, and health service models. Additionally, they will learn about the technical operation of these tools and their impact on medical care and health monitoring for older adults.
Module 2: Real-life case studies from a multidisciplinary perspective. Working together for comprehensive care for older adults.
Description: This module emphasizes the importance of a collaborative approach across disciplines for comprehensive care for older adults within the digital health ecosystem. Students will learn to identify the role of engineers, physicians, nurses, psychologists, and other professionals in managing physical and mental illnesses and integrating emerging technologies.
Module 3: Cybersecurity and Connectivity: Strategies to Protect Older Adult Data in the Digital Ecosystem:
Description: Cybersecurity is crucial when handling sensitive health data. Students will learn how to ensure the protection of older adult information and how to implement secure connectivity solutions on digital health platforms.
Module 4: Automation of AI-supported Health Services: The Key to Healthy, Articulated and Sustainable Care:
Description: This module introduces interoperability in digital health and how different systems can work together to empower older adults in their self-care and disease prevention to prolong their productive life and social inclusion.
Module 5: Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare: The Future of Elder Care:
Description : This module focuses on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) models to improve elderly care. Students will learn to develop and implement intelligent models that assist in decision-making, disease prediction, and care personalization.
This integrated approach allows students to not only understand emerging technologies from a technical perspective, but also gain direct, hands-on experience working with disease management experts and older adults in real-world settings.
