The 1st International Workshop on Cyber Healthcare 2016 (CyberCare) is an international forum dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practical implementation of Cyberspace in HealthCare. CyberCare intends to provide the state-of-the-art technologies in the broad areas of Cyberspace techniques in healthcare to industry, researchers, physicians, engineers, and students. CyberCare will be held in Auckland, New Zealand (8-12 August 2016) in conjunction with the 2016 Cyber Science and Technology Congress (CyberSciTech 2016).

Cyberspace brings together physical, social and mental spaces. Furthermore, cyberspace is shaping daily life with respect to work, education, entertainment, business, health, and cultural issues. Cyberspace brings new challenges that need to be tackled such as cyber healthcare. To address these endlessly rising challenges, there is a need to establish new sciences and research portfolios in order to integrate cyber-physical, cyber-social and cyber-mental together into the vision of Cyber Healthcare. Cyber Healthcare aims to secure the healthcare systems, hospitals, patients against emerging threats and vulnerabilities, and sustaining privacy and trust. CyberCare aims to provide a highly professional and comparative academic research forum that promotes collaborative excellence between academia and industry. 

CyberCare offers a common platform for scientists, researchers and engineers to exchange their latest ideas and outcomes on healthcare information technologies, healthcare systems and global e-healthcare security and privacy applications. It is also a venue to exchange the latest advances in cyber healthcare studies with the broad scope of cyber-related sciences, technologies and applications topics. CyberCare invites speakers and researchers to submit papers that encompass conceptual analysis, design implementation and performance evaluation. All submitted papers are peer-reviewed (blind reviewed).
