The School of Health and Welfare’s research projects within the focus area Health Innovation
Health innovation at Halmstad University is an interdisciplinary education and research focus area that meets health challenges through cross-disciplinary and value-creating research and education in collaboration with societal actors.The goal is to contribute with innovative and sustainable solutions for societal challenges within the healthcare area.
Today there are two directions within the focus area:
- Information Driven Care
- Movement for Health and Performance
Within the research projects aimed at Information Driven Care, the researchers at the School of Health and Welfare investigate and develop information driven healthcare solutions, for example management information systems in clinical practice. In the research projects within the field Movement4Health, the researchers are investigating how one can work to promote good environments as well as sustainable and healthy behaviours and habits. This is meant to contribute to increased physical activity, health and well-being for people with different backgrounds.
