My name is Hugo Peixoto, and I work as an Auxiliary Researcher at Centro Algoritmi of the University of Minho, Portugal. I hold a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the same university, where my research focused on improving interoperability in healthcare systems. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to contribute to hospital information systems, serving as Director of the Information Systems Department at Centro Hospitalar de Entre o Douro e Vouga E.P.E. and as an IT Specialist at Centro Hospitalar do Tâmega e Sousa E.P.E.. These roles allowed me to work on projects such as Electronic Health Records and interoperability, which aim to enhance healthcare delivery through technology. Since 2009, I’ve been part of the Information Systems Technologies team within the Knowledge Extraction group at ALGORITMI. During this time, I’ve been involved in publishing research and editing journal issues focused on using technology to address healthcare challenges. Teaching and mentoring have always been important to me, and I’ve been fortunate to receive recognition for my teaching efforts from the School of Engineering at the University of Minho. I’m motivated by the potential of collaboration and innovation to make a positive impact in both healthcare and education.
