Abstract
In this article, we identify and discuss challenges imposed on
technological research by emerging developments in health and
wellbeing. We see an increasing importance of digital health
literacy, the convergence of medicine and daily life, a shift from
individual health to community care, a growth of personalized
medicine, and the impact of internet of things on health. These
developments mean challenges for technical research, such as
the need, but also difficulties of interdisciplinarity, or the need to
translate personal health data into medical information. Today’s
research approaches are not always best suited to deal with the
challenges, e.g. of conducting real long term intervention
studies, or taking into account regulatory issues. We propose a
joint campaign by HCI, AI, UX and machine learning
researchers, engineers, clinicians, regulatory bodies and all other
interested parties in these subjects.
