Published: March 6, 2017, 10:52 a.m.

A fascinating discussion with UK-based digital anthropologist Lydia Nicholas. We talk about the problems of digital news (and healthcare) bubbles and the\xa0problems about constructing a\xa0digital space for those who are vulnerable or not digitally native. In the process we touch on the problems surrounding the UK\u2019s much troubled care.data\xa0initiative and the issues raised by the relationship between Google Deep Mind and the Royal Free hospitals. But, we also touch on the optimism\xa0underlying future initiatives being baked into the UK\u2019s version of a learning healthcare system.
