Seminar: Can AI care about patients? A research journey about trust, consent, and liability in digital health

The Health Law Research Centre welcomes you to sign up for a seminar with Petra Holmberg, postdoctoral fellow at Lund University, titled "Can AI care about patients? A research journey about trust, consent, and liability in digital health". We will also have a christmas fika.

In this seminar, which maps Petra’s work from the past three years, she reflects on future perspectives in digital health and AI. To frame these questions, she draws on the film "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", where memories flicker like fragile constellations: erased, rewritten, or held desperately close. In digital health, our questions differ in form but not in gravity. What is consent when the journey of data stretches far beyond what the patient can see? Who is liable when responsibility slips quietly between human judgment and algorithmic logic? Throughout her research, she has explored the shifting landscape where ethics, law, and AI meet: the trembling space where consent must be more than a signature; where trust must be earned, not presumed; and where accountability must not dissolve like the fading memories in the film. And like main characters in the film searching for what must not be forgotten, she asks: What just remains untouched in the future of digital health?
