AIxxNOSOGRAPHIES

Actor-network Theory- inspired map of research into AI-assisted genetic screening for metabolic diseases in newborns; created by Janita Chen in collaboration with ELSA-NN

AIxxNOSOGRAPHIES proposes to develop a hybrid art and research methodology aimed at overcoming barriers of knowledge, trust, and access in order to facilitate public debate about the nascent field of algorithmically-assisted healthcare with nuance and complexity.
