Critical bioethics
The rise of right-wing political movements supported by key players from big tech is transforming Western societies. This so-called techno-feudalism also implies challenges for bioethics. Racist agendas, intentional misinformation on health topics such as vaccinations, banned words and research topics in public institutions, and the massive funding of questionable biomedical research projects undermine health equity, patient safety, and autonomy.…
A normativity mapping review on end-of-life care in long-term care institutions by authors from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland
This article presents the findings of a “normativity mapping review” designed to make visible the breadth of normative understandings at work within interdisciplinary scholarship on end-of-life care in long-term care institutions. The scope of the literature was limited to peer-reviewed articles authored by scholars affiliated with institutions in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. Terms and slogans associated with the hospice movement were used …
Integrating ethics in digital mental healthcare technologies
Digital mental healthcare technologies increasingly incorporate gamification, yet relevant ethical considerations remain underexamined. This paper introduces the Principle-Based Empirically Grounded Roadmap Approach (PERA), a methodological contribution to empirical bioethics. It has evolved from ethics research within the Horizon Europe project ASP belong , which designs a collaboratively played augmented reality intervention for adolescents. PE…
Healthy and Happy? An Ethical Investigation of Emotion Recognition and Regulation Technologies (ERR) within Ambient Assisted Living (AAL)
Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) refers to technologies that track daily activities of persons in need of care to enhance their autonomy and minimise their need for assistance. New technological developments show an increasing effort to integrate automated emotion recognition and regulation (ERR) into AAL systems. These technologies aim to recognise emotions via different sensors and, eventually, to regulate emotions defined as “negative” via differ…
Lost in translation? Conceptions of privacy and independence in the technical development of AI-based AAL
AAL encompasses smart home technologies that are installed in the personal living environment in order to support older, disabled, as well as chronically ill people with the goal of delaying or reducing their need for nursing care in a care facility. Artificial intelligence (AI) is seen as an important tool for assisting the target group in their daily lives. A literature search and qualitative content analysis of 255 articles from computer scien…
Liquid Health. Medicine in the age of surveillance capitalism
Digital health technologies transform practices, roles, and relationships in medicine. New possibilities for a ubiquitous and constant data collection and the processing of data in real-time enable more personalized health services. These technologies might also allow users to actively participate in health practices, thus potentially changing the role of patients from passive receivers of healthcare to active agents. The crucial driving force of…
Equity in AgeTech for Ageing Well in Technology-Driven Places
AgeTech involves the use of emerging technologies to support the health, well-being and independent living of older adults. In this paper we focus on how AgeTech based on artificial intelligence (AI) may better support older adults to remain in their own living environment for longer, provide social connectedness, support wellbeing and mental health, and enable social participation. In order to assess and better understand the positive as well as…
Impotence and the Natural Explanation of Bewitchment
Wolfgang Reichart (1486-c. 1547) was a humanist and a town physician of Ulm. His work consists of a largely unpublished collection of nearly 600 texts . So far, it has been claimed that this compilation only consists of letters and poems. However, we have found a medical treatise, wherein Reichart discusses a case of impotence, its pathophysiology and therapy. One of the crucial aspects in this text is the relationship it describes between witchc…
