The 1st eCare Summer School on home care technologies is a funky combination of *themed presentations*, several *visits **to home lab facilities*, *technical courses with hands-on exercises* covering various aspects such as sensor and device communication and integration, data modelling, processing and interpretation, smart textiles, service/companion robots and existing ambient intelligence infrastructures within a home environment.

The participants will have the opportunity to present their own research during an informal poster session.

The summer school will incorporate a mix of *industry testimonials*, *smart textiles and wearable technology* lectures and a *guest lecture on ambient intelligence* from a principal researcher at the Computation Medicine Laboratory of the Institute of Computer Science of FORTH (ICS-FORTH) in Heraklion, Crete, Greece. The laboratory's main research directions are (a) biomedical informatics in support of individualized medicine and, (b) ambient intelligence eHealth environments.
