The topic of his presentation was “Photoplethysmography-based Physiological Measurement Technologies: Applications and Uncertainty Estimation.” In his nearly one-hour presentation, Prof. Marozas reviewed the history of photoplethysmography signal recording technology, shared the KTU Biomedical Engineering Institute experience in applying this technology for monitoring cardiac arrhythmias and blood pressure, and emphasized the importance of estimating uncertainty in monitoring physiological parameters to increase the confidence of medical professionals in the devices they use.
PhD students and young researchers benefit greatly from these conferences, as they can acquire a wealth of knowledge in a short time from invited experts. The conferences are held annually in a special location, the Lithuanian resort town of Palanga, which is one of the reasons why many participants from all over Europe attend. This year, 20 guest speakers participated in the conference, and 84 young scientists presented their work in the poster session.
