Dear All,

The 3rd European Technology Assessment Conference is taking place in UCC in May 2017, UCC, Cork, Ireland. As part of this conference I would like to draw your attention to the call for papers for the Consenting Health dAta through Social Media (CHASM) session at this conference.

The plethora of Health Social Networks (HSNs) in recent years has witnessed a dramatic increase in the online sharing of Personal Health Information (PHI) among patients and health professionals. Through HSNs, a variety of PHI is collected from patients, most typically quantified daily self-tracking services are offered, allowing for the collection of symptoms, treatments and biological information. HSNs also offer patient's condition specific forums where they can share their experiences and network with health professionals. Exchanging PHI online can potentially offer profound opportunities for both patients and health care professionals. Patients become empowered and can improve their own health-related outcomes by learning from the experience of others and through monitoring their health data acquired from quantified self-tracking. Health professionals can use the aggregated data from HSNs for innovative research to inform the development of treatments. However, exchanging PHI through HSNs also raises potential risks such as poor-quality information, ethical and legal implications as well as security and privacy risks.

Paper submissions for the CHASM session are now being accepted.
