Co-design Health

Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer often experience intense emotions that are difficult to put into words.In this episode, I speak with Niki Smit about how art and technology can create spaces for AYAs to express emotions that are otherwise hard to articulate. We explore how artistic practices can surface fear, uncertainty, anger, and hope — not as something to be fixed, but as something that deserves to be seen and acknowledged.We discuss why emotional expression is still often marginal in healthcare and innovation, and how art can play a meaningful role in AYA cancer care by complementing medical treatment and help improve psychosocial support.

Zingeving, Identiteit, De Dood, Verhalen & Oosterse Filosofie
In deze aflevering spreek ik met Jonas en Lisanne over onze ervaringen als jonge mensen die kanker kregen tijdens een cruciale fase in het leven. We verkennen hoe ziekte ons dwingt om in parallelle werelden te leven — een thema dat we verbinden aan verhalen zoals The Matrix, maar ook aan oosterse filosofie en culturele perspectieven op identiteit en de dood.

In this episode of the Co-design Health podcast, Pieter Vandekerckhove speaks with Mark Van Achter (experience expert), Nel Kleverlaan (Kankerspoken), Ruocha Wang (Integrated product design), Dr. Josée Zijlstra (Prof. dr. Josée Zijlstra-Baalbergen). Important solutions are: discuss the parent-child relationship, pediatric and adult care collaboration, provide childcare for children in the department or closeby, provide overnight solutions for partners to stay over with children.

In this episode of the Co-design Health podcast, Pieter Vandekerckhove speaks with Brieuc Van Damme about the involvement of health policymakers in co-design. They discuss how Brieuc got to commute between the arctic polar circle and Brussels as a health policymaker/consultant, why complex health problems as obesity need to be solved, how co-design could be a solution to these problems, tips and tricks to manage multiple stakeholders and how to get policymakers in a co-design session.

In this episode of the Co-design Health podcast, Pieter Vandekerckhove speaks with Dr Christophe Van Neste about the use of DNA applications in healthcare. They discuss how he got to be in Saudi-Arabia, the difference between machine learning, deep neural networks and artificial intelligence, and if any of these technologies will change healthcare radically, the need for algorithms to synthesize all DNA research, what we can expect from DNA applications in the field of cancer and other topics.
