Kort om
Martin Vinther Bavngaard is a PhD Student in health technology at the Faculty of Health Sciences at Oslo Metropolitan University. His project constitutes the qualitative arm of 'BoVEL - Bo lenger hjemme med velferdsteknologi', an interdisciplinary research and innovation project involving Oslo municipality, Abilia, and OsloMet. While the BoVEL project aims to determine the effect of the social technology KOMP and its feasibility as a tool implemented in the homecare services, Bavngaard's project explores the mechanisms underlying both of these questions. By employing a sociotechnical lens, the project investigates KOMP's implementation into both familial and homecare contexts, unpacking the complexities of human-technology relations.
Bavngaard holds an undergraduate and graduate degree in Media Science (2019 and 2021, respectively) from the University of Southern Denmark, where he also worked as an instructor, teaching assistant, academic counsellor, and research assistant. His published work reflects an interest in digital health technology and innovation, and includes investigations of apps, email-, and video consultations, and social technology.
Additional engagements include undergraduate and graduate course director, undergraduate thesis supervisor and examinator, graduate thesis supervisor, and lecturer.
