Acknowledgment. This work has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020
research and innovation programme under the grant agreement No. 727816 (PULSE). The
performed research studies have all been granted ethical approval from the relevant IRB authority
in each PULSE pilot testbed city (Ethics Committee of the Parc de Salut Mar hospital in
Barcelona, through NHS Health Research Authority IRAS (Integrated Research Application
System) in Birmingham, New York Academy of Medicine IRB in New York City, etc.), resulting
from comprehensive multimonthly evaluation processes. The inclusion and exclusion methods
and criteria for recruiting citizens have been specified in relevant previous publications of the
Project, such as in Section 2.2.1. Participation Criteria in [23].
