5.1.2 College: The future of health care and the role of technology (R. Wehrens + E.
van Beers)
VAN DEN BERG & KEYMOLEN (2013)
Learning objectives:
- Give a basic description of philosophy of technology and the types of questions that are asked from this
perspective;
- Describe in general terms the development of philosophy of technology based on the three periods identified by
Van den Berg & Keymolen
Ambivalent technologies
- Role of technology not only limited to healthcare – we live in a technological culture
- Technologies are everywhere around us
- Technology and society/culture mutually shape each other (often in unpredictable
ways)
- High expectations vs. intense debate about new technologies
- Many ‘hoorah’ stories about new technologies: optimism and high expectations as a
recurring trend
- Alternative voices are also often heard: technology presented in highly negative
terms, critical perspectives on technology (oppressive, dehumanizing)
The role of philosophy of technology
- Asking particular ‘types’ of questions about technology
- More abstract: what is the nature of technology?
- Broader focus: what is the meaning of technology in our contemporary society?
- More critical: to what extend do we consider technological developments to be
beneficial? Who benefits and who doesn’t?
- Asks a particular attitude from you as student
- Critical analysis: what are underlying assumptions?
- ‘Out of the box’-thinking: what alternatives can you come up with?
The importance of philosophy of technology
1. Relevance
2. Reflection
3. Modification
Gastcollege (E. van Beers)
Personalized medicine is the innovative step! Wrong main assumption about technology: one
technique/way is good enough for all.
Innovation
1. Choose a disease and a clinical partner
2. Choose an unmet medical need (diagnoses, overall survival, response to therapy, etc.)
3. Choose a technology (gene expression profiling) and collect data
