Welcome to the 5th ADLIFE Project newsletter.
Highlights from ADLIFE
Although the summer months are often quieter while we all enjoy some well earned time off, work has continued in the ADLIFE project. This newsletter rounds up the insights from the project over the summer months and lets you know what's coming up in the next few months.

Meet the ADLIFE Team
Because the restrictions imposed by the global pandemic prevent us meeting up in person, it's important that we find different ways to help us get to know each other better. We've asked the ADLIFE partners to take part in Q&A sessions to share their backgrounds, their aspirations for the project, as well as some interesting facts about themselves that we might not already know!
Over the summer, we've got to know Professor Dipak Kalra, the President of the European Institution for Innovation through Health Data (i~HD), and Mohammed Omar Khan, who is the Lead Software Engineer and the Institute of Digital Healthcare (IDH) within the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG), University of Warwick.

Don't miss out on the forthcoming webinar featuring a collaboration between ADLIFE and SCIROCCO teams where they will discuss their respective studies in relation to the concept of digital maturity. This webinar will be hosted by the Digital Health and Care Directorate of NHS Scotland and will be part of Digifest 2021, Scotland's largest digital health and care event taking place this November, The exact date and time will be released soon.
