The Pervasive Computing for Health and Healthy Aging Lab

We are a team of enthusiast engineers looking to have a positive impact in people's health through technology that lasts a lifetime

Engineering Research

We investigate machine learning methods for activity recognition and physiological sensor data processing to understand relations between behaviors and health

A focus on people

We develop application based on the methods studied to understand how researchers and users interact with them and how they affect our health decisions

Great tools

We use hardware and software for collecting, storing, and processing large amounts of data, such as sensors, wearable devices, and data management and analytics tools.

Interdisciplinary research

Fostering interdisciplinary research by collaborating with researchers from diverse fields to work on problems related to health and aging.

The Laboratory is based in Montreal, CA at Concordia University. Montreal is exceptional; safe, vibrant and diverse, with new things to discover around every corner. The Kanien’kehá:ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the lands and waters on which we gather and conduct our activities. With a population of 1.7 million, Tiohtià:ke/Montreal is home to four major universities and several clinical research centres and has been named the best student city in the world. It offers the most affordable tuition in Canada.

The city enjoys a thriving multicultural scene. Bilingualism is a part of Montreal’s tradition and adds to its inspiring atmosphere. While supporting a significant anglophone population, it is one of the largest French-speaking cities in the world.

Montreal is famed for its innovative culinary scene and festivals. It was also the first metropolis to be designated a UNESCO City of Design by the Global Alliance for Cultural Diversity.

The city is recognized globally as an important centre for commerce, aerospace, transport, finance, pharmaceuticals, technology, design, gaming and film.
