The use of digital strategies and tools is on the rise in health research. While technologies like wearable sensors and social network platforms hold promise for understanding health behaviors, these strategies for gathering data include ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSIs) that must be considered.
This webinar provides an overview of how digital tools/strategies, including machine learning and artificial intelligence, are used in health research. It will highlight novel strategies for identifying possible unintended ELSIs when developing and evaluating digital health studies.
You will be introduced to the Digital Health Checklist (DHC) and framework. With the use of case studies, attendees will apply the DHC with a goal of improving awareness of issues related to privacy, risk/benefit assessment and data management that can be used when developing or reviewing a research protocol and consent form. In addition, learn to apply a more structured approach to assessing digital health research risks.
