25 Mar 2025
In her NEDIPAL project, Dr. Anna Bauer will examine the functions and consequences of digitization on palliative care at home.
Negotiating Digital Technologies in Palliative Home Care (NEDIPAL)
Digital technologies such as video consultations, apps, and artificial intelligence could improve home care—but how do they work in practice?
NEDIPAL will examine the collaboration between caregivers, patients, and family members from an organizational sociological perspective against the backdrop of increasing digitalization in this field of work. The results will be made available as best practice recommendations for policy advice.
Funded under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), the project will be based at the Brussels Institute for Social and Population Studies (BRISPO), Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), starting in 2026. The project is supervised by Prof. Dr. Werner Schirmer.
