University of Twente, the Netherlands

The Department of Science, Technology and Policy Studies (STePS) and the Department of Philosophy (both University of Twente) are joining research in the research project ”Telecare at home. Anticipating conflicting norms in telemonitoring technologies for chronic patients”. This research project aims to increase understanding of how engineers can anticipate conflicting norms concerning surveillance and autonomy implied in telemonitoring technologies. These devices can monitor or diagnose patients at home by the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and may improve the quality of health care. The adoption of these technologies implies a transition in health care because they challenge existing distributions of tasks and responsibilities, including norms of care. For this research project there are two vacancies.
