idea bank
The Digitalis Research Idea Bank is a living collection of early-stage concepts, questions, and provocations that emerge from Digitalis Research's work at the intersection of health and technology.
Unlike polished essays or fully developed research programs, the Idea Bank captures thinking in progress — raw hypotheses, unexplored possibilities, and cross-disciplinary connections that have yet to be fully investigated. It is designed to be a resource for curious thinkers, potential collaborators, and anyone looking to understand not just where Digitalis Research has been, but where it is headed.

The advent of new technologies often outstrips our existing ethical and equity frameworks. Society is then forced to revisit basic normative issues such as the boundaries of privacy, the role of intellectual property, and even the definition of humanity.
