Digital Public Health SkillsLab
Lead: Brigitte Strahwald, Dr. Michaela Coenen
As part of the “Freiraum 2025” project funded by the Foundation for Innovation in Higher Education, a Digital Public Health SkillsLab will be established from 2025 to 2027. The aim is to create a learning, experimentation and training environment for students and lecturers in which knowledge, skills and abilities relating to digital public health can be acquired in areas such as AI, health apps, usability/UX, cybersecurity and project management. The SkillsLab is intended to create a flexible environment in which new digital public health ideas can be developed and realized.
