OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Abstract: Fitness coaches, symptom checkers, sleep assistants, period trackers: the digital assistants help us in our everyday lives and promise to enhance our health and autonomy. At the same time, discrimination and sexism can often be found in the applications. Feminist apps want to change that, but how can digital developments, such as apps, be understood as feminist? What are the criteria for a feminist-ethical analysis and what would be the benefits of such a perspective?
This is a hybrid seminar. If you will join online, please register at medsci.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0kd-CorD4iHNxYF7aISoPrlTGzViBeaAqc
