1.2 Methodology

Review the methodology used for this research.

The research involved a review of related academic literature, and semi-structured interviews exploring experiences of developing and using AI technologies in healthcare settings.

Interviewees included workers in primary and hospital care settings with varying levels of experience in AI technologies; industry innovators; representatives of related regulatory and arm’s length bodies; and academics who work at the intersection of AI, healthcare, education and clinical confidence. 

The research did not include workers and carers in social and community care settings, although some of the findings may be relevant to aspects of their work.
