ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Health technology and AI are about more than coding, models, data, or performance. But many of the ethical and societal issues are complex and hard to grasp. This is where Built Better comes in: A science podcast for those interested in health innovation and the complex social dimensions and ethical questions behind technology development. In each episode, you get an in-depth conversation between our host and bioethicist Dr. Bettina Zimmermann and a fellow researcher at the Institute of Ethics and Medicine and Technology, School of Medicine and Health, Technical University of Munich.
Our researchers dive deep into our latest research to bring you a practical perspective and nuanced analysis of the ethical implications of machine learning models for clinical care, health information on social media, aging in times of technological innovation, and more.
