AboutAbout the lab
Studying dialogue between research and society
The Medical Science Communication field studies how to engage in dialogue with diverse stakeholders, including patients and citizens, which is essential for advancing medical research.
In genomic medicine, the distance is short between basic research results and their reaching clinical practice and individuals' lives, so the impact on society appears directly.
The lab therefore conducts practical research, including on ethical aspects, into how patients and citizens can participate in research and how communication based on research results should be carried out.
