Biomedical research is being transformed through the application of information technologies that allow ever greater amounts data to be shared on an unprecedented scale. However, methods for involving participants have not kept pace with changes in capability. In era when digitally at global level, mechanisms informed consent remain static, paper-based and organised around national boundaries legal frameworks. Dynamic (DC) both a specific project wider concept offers new approach consent;...

Background: Electronic health records are widely acknowledged to provide an important opportunity anonymize patient-level care data and collate across populations support research. Nonetheless, in the wake of public policy concerns about security inappropriate use data, conventional approaches toward governance may no longer be sufficient respect protect individual privacy. One proposed solution improve transparency trust is known as Dynamic Consent, which uses information technology...

Abstract The use of digital technologies is now widespread and increasing, but not always optimized for effective learning. Teachers in higher education have little time or support to work on innovation improvement their teaching, which often means they simply replicate current practice a medium. This paper makes the case learning design environment scaffold teachers' engagement with development technology‐enhanced learning, based user requirements pedagogic theory. To be able adopt, adapt,...

With one million people treated every 36 hours, routinely collected UK National Health Service (NHS) health data has huge potential for medical research. Advances in acquisition from electronic patient records (EPRs) means such are increasingly digital and can be anonymised research purposes. NHS England's care.data initiative recently sought to increase the amount availability of data. However, controversy uncertainty following public awareness campaign led a delay rollout, indicating that...

The combination of pervasive and complex technology an increasingly challenging healthcare environment is the setting for this research study. As a longitudinal case study, tracked development implementation large private information systems network in U.K. National Health Service (NHS). Using stakeholder theory, we unpacked story roles perceptions how they changed over time. Our findings suggest that favorable unfavorable positions held by multiple groups become entangled even same focal...

Web 2.0 technologies have enabled new methods of engagement, moving from static mono-directional sources information to interactive user-led experiences. Use for engagement is gaining momentum within the health sector however this still in its infancy biobanking research. This paper reports on findings focus groups with biobank participants gauge their views a dynamic consent interface. The study suggest that would welcome more biobanks, and opportunity hear about how data samples are being...

Research on IS solutions for environmental sustainability has evolved into a modest, but firm body of knowledge. Despite this progressive understanding the potential in enabling sustainability, our academic practices seem widely unaffected by these insights. The way we research or teach is rarely influenced consideration sustainability. For example, before pandemic, many us belonged to hypermobile group that travelled five six times more than average employee. Our also often not aligned with...

Abstract In recent years, discussion of the provision government services has paid particular attention to notions customer choice and improved service delivery. However, there appears be marked shift in relationship between citizen state moving from being responsive needs citizens viewing explicitly as customers. This paper argues that this change is accelerated by use techniques like benchmarking, which have been widely used private sector. To illustrate point, focuses on adoption website...

Much is known about patient attitudes to ethical and legal questions in the context of biobanking, particularly regarding privacy protection consent. However, little medical researchers who use biobanks for research these issues. Four focus groups with UK were conducted 2010–2011. The study highlights a range issues associated oversight consent process (including obtaining approval biobank samples particular concerns international studies), benefits limitations broad possibilities revoking...
