New Publication: Caring for data in later life – the datafication of ageing as a matter of care

Vera Gallistl and Roger von Laufenberg published a new article which examines the datafication of ageing by drawing on a practice approach toward care. They describe the datafication of ageing as a matter of care, achieved through the local tinkering of actors – technology designers, care staff, older adults, and highlighting the practices necessary to develop, maintain and implement data infrastructures and draws on empirical research from the ALGOCARE project. The article has been published in a special issue of the "Information, Communication & Society" journal on "Care-ful data studies" and is available as open access here: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/1369118X.2023.2279554?scroll=top&needAccess=true
