Welcome to our Embodied and Social Experience Lab site!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are a research lab – Embodied and Social Experience Lab (EASElab) \u2013 at the University of Latvia Institute of Philosophy and Sociology with a background in philosophy and bioethics and training in qualitative research. The University of Latvia Institute of Philosophy has a long tradition (founded in 1981) of philosophical and sociological research and at EASElab we are conducting research combining both of these disciplines with the aim to generate knew knowledge in the fields of Public Health, Digital Health, and Health Services Research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our team is involved in projects related to health care and public health issues, offering innovative knowledge about individuals\u2019 embodied and social experiences related to health, illness, prevention and the use of technology within health care. This knowledge is important in understanding users\u2019 (patients, including people in vulnerable situations and at risk of stigma or discrimination, health care professionals, caregivers and healthy users) experiences, decisions and actions, which in its turn is necessary for developing and improving experience-based health communication strategies, policy and practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
