The Article Series is an in-depth look at current topics relevant to aging and health. Each series explores a specific subject including reviews and perspectives that are published consecutively over a period of time. At least two articles make up a series with the maximum being four.
While we accept a variety of topics, we’re especially interested in how we can use technology to solve undiagnosed medical conditions, the complexities of the healthcare system and how healthcare differs in different countries, using technology as a detective tool AND support system.
