The international symposium Caring Machines, funded by the @wellcometrust as part of my Fellowship, took place this week at the @BayesCentre. It focused on how we can ensure that #AI & #robotic technologies in the #health & #care sectors are developed & implemented responsibly.

Very nice panel at @CPDPconferences 2024, happy to represent @BIASProjectEU, thank you to our sister project @HorizonFINDHR for organizing this!

Just wrapped up our last consortium meeting for the @UniStavanger-led Norwegian project "CARING FUTURES" with this wonderful group of interdisciplinary scholars. It's been two days of great writing collaboration on developing care ethics and 4+ years of great scholarly work.
I'm in Stavanger for a writing seminar and chapter feedback for the @UiSQualitech "Caring Futures" project these days. A very exciting project that is soon coming to an end, with some intense last months of writing now on the future of care work(ers)🤓
