DATAETHICS project receives top marks and recognition

Eurolife's DATAETHICS project has been awarded for its innovative work on data ethics and Big Data in (bio)medical education, and has received funding for an international conference in December.

The Eurolife DATAETHICS project, from Karolinska Institutet led by Zoe Säflund and Carina Bois at Teaching and Learning (UoL), and Jonas Sundbäck together with others, has been awarded a "best practice" label after scoring 98 out of 100 in an evaluation by DAAD, the German National Agency, and European Commission. 

The project focuses on data ethics and the use of Big Data in (bio)medical education, with reviewers praising its significant impact and innovative approach. In addition, the Ministry of Science and Culture of Lower Saxony has approved funding for the Eurolife DATAETHICS International Conference, set for December. This recognition highlights the success of the three-year collaboration and its future potential.
