Our Research Approach

Intel is committed to understanding the needs of patients and healthcare professionals, as well as anticipating and responding to future needs.

That's why our research is focused on improving care in clinical environments, advancing personal health technologies for the home, identifying new care models and work practices, and promoting standards and policies that enable innovation and interoperability across the healthcare ecosystem.

Our research focuses not just on one person, but on entire care networks.

By studying hundreds of households and clinical settings around the world, we piece together an understanding of these complex, collaborative systems and the people who belong to them, so we can understand how people go about trying to live their lives and identify opportunities where Intel® technology can make their lives better.

For example, one key objective is to help older people to "age in place" independently in the home of their choice for as long as possible despite chronic health conditions and in the process, improve their quality of life while easing the burden on healthcare systems.
