Observa Science in Society, one of the partners in our consortium, has released a special edition of Observa Magazine entirely dedicated to the themes and research activities of the HEREDITARY project.
The publication explores the impact of digital technologies on healthcare and society, focusing on topics such as citizen science, digital health, AI, and the use of health data in research. The magazine also examines how healthcare systems are increasingly moving towards prevention, personalized medicine, and continuous health monitoring through digital tools and platforms.
One of the central topics addressed in the publication is the importance of citizen science and public participation in scientific research. The issue presents findings from studies on public opinion, showing that many citizens are willing to contribute to research activities by making their health and personal data available, particularly when data sharing can support medical progress and improve healthcare outcomes.
At the same time, the magazine addresses important ethical and social challenges linked to digital health, including privacy protection, transparency, data governance, and the growing role of large technology companies in the management of health-related information.
The publication is available in both Italian and English. You can access HERE.
