E. (Karin) Bogdanova MSc MRes

Profile

Karin Bogdanova is a PhD candidate in the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering and a part of AI DeMoS Lab, which focuses on developing AI for meaningful democratic engagements.

Research interests

Karin’s project within the lab concerns a newly proposed method of mental health diagnostics, prediction, and management called digital phenotyping. In her research, she proposes an alternative approach to the design of AI-based digital phenotyping that combines ethics and pragmatist aesthetics. In addition to new aesthetic theories, her work draws from critical HCI, medical anthropology and philosophy of psychiatry.

She is developing a felt informatics approach that aims to prioritise lived, socio-ecological, and sensory aspects of the experience and articulations of mental health while providing clinically relevant data to clinicians.
