InSilicoHealth aims to train doctoral candidates in the field of virtual human twin technology, with a specific focus on
addressing challenges related to healthy aging in Europe in three core domains: heart, musculoskeletal, and brain. There is
a two-way transfer between the research projects and the interdisciplinary training programme, in which candidates will
receive a broad education thatspans different fieldsrelevant to digital health. A compelling interdisciplinary joint degreeDN programme for 11 DCs is proposed answering four interdisciplinary research objectives, shouldered by intersectoral
training components (i.e., academic and non-academic secondments) to prepare a new generation of outstanding digital
health professionals.
InSilicoHealth will provide a comprehensive and forward-looking programme that combines research, interdisciplinary
training, and collaboration with industry to address the complex challenges of healthy ageing, using virtual human
twin technology. The DCs will be actively encouraged to surpass the technology-driven focus and to explicitly
addressing the ethical, legal societal implications of VHT technologies. By providing the DCs with a 360° view on
the methodological, technological, ethical, social, and regulatory challenges associated with this digital revolution of
healthcare, InSilicoHealth is conceptualized as a steppingstone for a sustainable EU-based, doctoral programme on in
silico health.
