  The Internet of Things (Iot) will allow a large number of devices to communicate with us. In this project we propose to investigate the use of wearable computing platforms, enriched with gaze information, for interaction with (Iot) devices. Despite several recent advances in wearable computing (WC), this technology still presents several interaction limitations. Gaze interaction also pres…

• Abstract

  Over 100 million pregnant women are at risk of malaria each year. Effects include maternal anemia, miscarriage and low birth weight, and central to their pathogenesis is the placental sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum- infected erythrocytes (IE), termed placental malaria, and mediated by a parasite protein called VAR2CSA. First-time mothers are at greatest risk, as they lack antibody…
