Dr. Vincent Rialle (M.S. Computer Science, M.S. Social Science, PhD
Biomedical engineering-1987, PhD Biomedical ethics-2007) is senior
research scientist in Computer science in medicine at the University of
Grenoble, France, and hospital practitioner at the Grenoble University
Hospital. He is member of the TIMC-IMAG laboratory (UMR UJF/CNRS 5525) and
General Secretary of the French Society of Technologies for Autonomy and
Gerontechnology.
He has worked in several areas of medical artificial intelligence since
1984. His current research area is Health 'smart' homes and ageing in
place technologies, including topics such as users and stakeholders
needs assessment, participative design, cognitive modelling, barrier free
technology, intelligent remote monitoring, multidimensional evaluation,
and ethics of technological innovation for elderly and disabled people.
V. Rialle has published over 80 peer-reviewed journals and congresses
articles. He has directed or co-directed numerous national and
international research projects for over 25 years (including a 15 years
scientific cooperation with Canada/Qubec). He has developed and taught a
number of courses related to his evolving research programme, including
Medical Informatics, Object Oriented Programming, Decision Making and
Machine Learning, Biostatistics, and more recently Ethics of information
technologies in medicine and homecare. He served as advisor to several
dozen PhD students, MS students, post-doctoral fellows, and undergraduates
in Medicine and Computer Science at the Faculty of Medicine of Grenoble.
Recently V. Rialle wrote:
- 1) A report ordered by the French ministry in charge of elderly and
disabled people entitled: Emergent technologies for improving
gerontological practice and everyday life of elderly people and their
family. French version:
