The successful candidate will become part of the Computational Media Lab and undertake interdisciplinary research focusing on the societal challenges related to the datafication of health. The Computational Media Lab is a research lab that engages with challenges brought about by processes of digitalisation and datafication. Using, reconfiguring, and creating a multitude of research methodologies, research within this lab engages with the tension between computer science, interaction design and media studies by studying how, for instance, people engage with and make sense of big data and digital technologies in their everyday lives. The PhD project is expected to explore questions of datafied power, how people are living their everyday lives with and through data, and how relationships between data and people are mediated in various ways. This position is specifically oriented towards experiences and expectations within health care and self-care practices but should also probe links to other relevant areas of datafication that are not explicitly related to health.
