<br>
<br>At the University of Twente we offer a postdoc position on
<br>Citizen Science – Responsible Innovation in Digital Health
<br>
<br>Please note that basic communication skills in Dutch are required!
<br>
<br>In the 3-year research and innovation programme TOPFIT Citizenlab we will bring together citizens, health professionals, companies and researchers for developing and embedding technological innovations for care and health: https://www.utwente.nl/nl/techmed/kennisuitwisseling/topfit-citizenlab/.
<br>
<br>For this ambitious project University of Twente is forming a group of 6 postdoc researchers. Being one of them, you will study how different forms of early involvement of citizens can contribute to responsible innovation in digital health. In particular, you will investigate the roles Citizenlab and Citizen Science can take in innovation processes, and the needs, opportunities and effects of citizen involvement in the Twente health innovation system. Innovations will relate to those tested and implemented in the 4 pilots of Citizenlab:
<br>
<br>  *   Citizens & diabetes
<br>  *   Healthy citizens at work (care at home & work)
<br>  *   Citizen involvement in development and embedding of new technologies (Rheumatism HandScan & Diameter),
<br>  *   Citizens at home,
<br>but also beyond. You will collaborate with other postdocs and partners in Citizenlab and with partners in Norway. Part of the position is related to an international project funded by the Norwegian Research Council.
