As part of our project Mobile Health Ethics & Sociology, we are organising a conference on mHealth und Ethik: Im Dialog mit Politik, Praxis und Wissenschaft. Looking forward to meet wonderful speakers. uni-augsburg.de/de/fakultaet/m… #mHealth #DigitalHealth #Ethics

Our researcher Bianca Jansky Bianca Jansky has just started her EACME visiting fellowship at the Ethox Centre University of Oxford. She will be working on an empirical study on norms and values of Digital Health Technology startup stakeholders with Angeliki Kerasidou and @horn_ruth_

Reunion with @FelixMachleid at our Mobile Health Ethics & Sociology conference on ethics of mHealth in Berlin 🎉🙌🏼🙏😄

Our researcher Bianca Jansky successfully defended her PhD in Sociology, with a dissertation on device activism in chronic (self)care and open-source innovation for Type 1 diabetes, supervised by Die_Villa_Braslavsky and Henriette Langstrup. Congratulations to Dr Bianca Jansky 👏 🎊 🎉✨

Just out in #Bioethics: a paper by Bianca Jansky, Tereza Hendl and Azakhiwe, exploring patient-led and open-source innovation for type 1 diabetes care through the lens of intersectional and global health justice, open access: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bi… #DigitalHealth #GlobalHealth

In our research team, we are contemplating where to present our findings and recommendations for open-source digital health innovation beyond academic debates, as the health tech community could benefit from these insights. Any crucial events in 2024? #DigitalHealth #mHealth

Really looking forward to this talk. Come join us. It's going to be fun

Just out in #Bioethics: latest paper by Tereza Hendl and Ayush Shukla, exploring whether digital health can democratize health care. Open access: bit.ly/3u4u7hT #DigitalHealth #mHealth #DigitalHealthEthics #BigData #GlobalHealth #HealthJustice

New work, in which we argue that given the growing pool of empirical evidence of unequal health outcomes through digital health, debates on democratization need to be connected with social determinants of health, but also, the concern needs to go beyond democratization to justice

Just out in PLOS Global Public Health: our researcher Tereza Hendl has co-led a paper with experts on the ethical, legal and societal aspects of #DigitalHealth, taking a closer look at digital technologies for global mental health. #GlobalHealth #MentalHealth Open access: plos.io/3SJACQF

Latest work in which we explore the complexity of digital technologies for global mental health and the conditions under which they could offer intersectionally beneficent health care, guided by the specific needs and agency of under-served and structurally vulnerable populations

👇🏿A brilliant plea/reminder by Tereza Hendl & Ayush Shukla to always combine excitement for digital innovations with deep engagement with the structural determinants of their overall impact on health equity, democratisation, and justice. + thanks for engaging with my little essay!

Glad to hear that our paper resonates!

Our researcher Tereza Hendl will be giving a talk at 6PM CET: Can digital health democratize health care?

Very happy to be part of this important workshop, taking a close critical look at Femtech and digital contraception and interrogating how beneficent these technologies actually are to the health and wellbeing of women and fellow tech users. What a great programme and discussions!

Just out: Special Issue "The ethics of mHealth as a global phenomenon" edited by Verina Wild, Tereza Hendl & Bianca Jansky. In the editorial, they urge scholars to conceptualise #mHealth as a global technology and explore concerns of health equity and justice onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bi…

Might there be any context-specific data on how this affects the quality of health care and gendered patient outcomes?

Our researchers are on the way to #EASST4S2024. Bianca Jansky will be presenting on mundane everyday life practices of device activism in Type 1 Diabetes care and together with Tereza Hendl, on the need for researching medical AI with affected populations easst4s2024.net/programme/#141…

A vital policy brief, based on our debates in a workshop critically assessing the Femtech sector and digital contraception. The multimillion industry raises concerns, given the lack of robust regulation and empirical evidence of accuracy and health benefit in a diverse population
