Research contributions from this area include: Tools and procedures for improved regulation of people with diabetes type 1 and type 2, and tools and procedures for monitoring and control of patients with chronic diseases (NCDs).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Health Intelligence<\/strong>\u00a0is defined as use and development of knowledge to improve the health of the population. In this research area, we focus on disease surveillance systems and how such systems can be used for the benefit of different patient groups. Furthermore, we address the development of methods for detection of deviations in spatio-temporal patterns of syndromic data, and develop models for spreads of infectious and non-infectious diseases for the purpose of prediction.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Motivation \/ persuasive technology<\/strong> covers tools and techniques for motivation patients to follow up their treatment (compliance) and people in general to be e.g. more physical active.
