Post-doc position available at the Human Interfaces in Information
Systems Laboratory of the Information Science and Technologies Institute
in Pisa, Italy.
The post-doc will work in a project in the area of Ambient-Assisted Living.
The project aims to extend the time that the elderly can live in their
home environment, increasing their autonomy and assisting them in
carrying out their daily activities through intelligent and intuitive
web applications.
The post-doc will contribute to the design and development of a software
platform aimed at:
i. Monitoring the behaviour of the elderly; providing the elderly with
the most important health warnings with persuasive suggestions at the
appropriate time. We will include features to detect any deviations from
expected behaviour, and persuade older people to adopt a healthier
behaviour;
ii. Providing caregivers, but also the elderly who have a certain
familiarity with the technology, with intuitive interaction environments
so that they can easily customize the assistance services and the
existing devices at home (such as heating, security system, ..) in
context-dependent way.
Requirements:
* Ph.D. or Master's Degree with at least three years of documented
research experience at the University and public or private research
