Doctoral Student, human-computer interaction About the role Applications are sought from candidates interested in pursuing a PhD in Information processing science in the domain of human-computer interaction. Candidates will be based in the INTERACT research group at the University of Oulu (http://www.oulu.fi/tol/node/20094) and will be registered for the doctoral programme at the University of Oulu. The programme of research in which the PhD candidate will engage will form part of the CHESS ITN programme. About CHESS Changing demographics and increasing pressure on health related resources mean that new models of care must be found. Fortunately, technology developments and increasing digital literacy mean that we can now put the correct information in the correct hands at the correct time. This is connected health and it allows patients, clinicians, and planners to make better decisions. Ultimately, these decisions can save lives, save money and ensure a better quality of life for the patient during and after treatment. Connected Health is an emerging market and an emerging science. It requires t-shaped" individuals with deep disciplinary expertise allied to a broad understanding of a variety of domains including business, economics, life science, health science, computer science, social science and engineering. The Connected Health Early Stage Researcher Support System ITN (CHESS) will develop connected health scientists and champions who have a broad understanding of multiple domains, who can communicate in an interdisciplinary world and who can operate across the education, industry, health and policy sectors. Funded by the European Commission through its Marie Sklowdowska Curie programme, CHESS will include intersectoral secondments, interdisciplinary communication skills, public engagement and outreach with particular focus on patient, clinician and policy-maker audiences. This will build on a programme of interrelated core research projects which will address gaps in the knowledge and evidence base for Connected Health in terms of health economics, use of big data, personal sensing, business modelling, navigating markets and ecosystems, change management and user-led design. A network of 15 PhD students will be based in partner organisations across Europe including: UNIVERSITY COLLEGE DUBLIN, Ireland ARISTOTLE UNIVERSITY OF THESSALONIKI, Greece UNIVERSITY OF ULSTER, Northern Ireland OULUN YLIOPISTO, Finland SALUMEDIA TECNOLOGÍAS S.L., Spain CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE ET D'INDUSTRIE DE GRENOBLE, France BEACON HOSPITAL, Ireland PHILIPS ELECTRONICS NEDERLAND B.V., Netherlands About the Project Value co-creation models in digital services for promoting health The candidate will examine how emerging patient-centered care models create value from improved health, not disease treatments thus supplementing or expanding current care models. Adopting the theoretical framework service-dominant logic (SDL) and value co-creation, the project will explore how actors together create value by providing their unique competences, skills, and other resources for service production creating value. The candidate will study heterogeneous value co-creation networks, consisting of individuals, producers and service providers, and governments and other public actors. Supervised by Prof Isomursu, s/he will conduct a literature review on value propositions and how value is co-created for the target market (end-user perspective) through integrated resources (multi-way interaction between suppliers/providers and customers/users). S/he will spend 3 months in an insurance company to develop a case study on value co-creation. New care models targeting faster rehabilitation times are based on streamlining the care process, especially with regard to moving patients in and out from institutional care, adopting ICT supported tools, and using personalized monitoring data for rehabilitation. The candidate is expected to produce high-level scientific pub
