Innovation in Medicine and Healthcare 2015 (InMed-15) will be held at Suzaku Campus, 
Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto, Japan - organized by KES International, and the Research 
Center of Advanced ICT for Medical and Healthcare at Ritsumeikan University. We are 
delighted to invite contributions to InMed-15, featuring a Workshop on Smart Medical and 
Healthcare Systems. This conference will gather a multi-disciplinary group consisting of 
researchers and engineers, managers, students and practitioners from the medical arena, 
to discuss the ways that innovation, knowledge exchange and enterprise can be applied to 
issues relating to medicine, surgery, healthcare and the issues of an ageing population. 
Proposals for papers to be presented and published in the proceedings, Special Sessions, 
Workshops and Exhibitors from industry or research centres, are welcome.
