Digital Health
Description
Digital health is an interdisciplinary field of research that encompasses all facets of healthcare and medicine and explores how it can be supported by technology. Within this field, we are exploring four major application areas and technologies: first, the adoption of telemedicine and teleconsultation by patients and physicians. Secondly, we are investigating AI applications to support physical activity in both recreational sports and rehabilitation. Thirdly, we are exploring the impact of digital healthcare in the workplace and companion applications for mental healthcare interventions. Finally, we focus on health analytics for decision support in healthcare.
In our four application areas, we use a mix of qualitative and quantitative research, as well as design-oriented research.
