Healthcare in the digital age: A new era of inequality?
Professor Trish Greenhalgh
Digital tools should make healthcare more efficient and accessible, but do they make everyone’s lives easier? Despite the belief that advances in digital technology are good for us, they create new barriers for some people. In this lecture, we'll explore how the digital age of healthcare is worsening health inequality. We need to rethink our approach to digital access and address structural and societal problems, rather than relying solely on technological fixes.
When: 3 Feb 2025, 18:30-20:00
Where: Conference Hall, City Hall College Green, Bristol BS1 5TR
