Supporting Health by Technology
May 12 & 13, 2022 | MARTINI PLAZA - Groningen
WELCOME
Dear colleague,
The Health Psychology group of the University Medical Center Groningen and the Centre for eHealth & Wellbeing Research of the University of Twente, are proud to present the 11th edition in the successful ‘Supporting Health by Technology’ series. It is great that after two years, in which we had to shift to online meetings, it is again possible to organize it in person. The conference will be held May 12-13, 2022, at MartiniPlaza in Groningen.
The aim of the conference is to discuss together the progress in the development of eHealth interventions and introducing new methods and models concerning the use of technology to support health. We have two keynote speakers: Dr. Nana Folmann Hempler (Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen) & Dr. Olga Perski (London). Participants will have every opportunity to meet and discuss with colleagues from research, health care, policy, and innovative businesses.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Groningen!
On behalf of the organizing committee,

Prof. dr. Mariët Hagedoorn

Prof. dr. Robbert Sanderman

KEYNOTE SPEAKERS

Dr. Nana Folmann Hempler
Equity in digital chronic disease management: what are the pitfalls and how do we overcome these?
Dr. Hempler will present lessons learned from digitally supported health interventions aiming to improve access to and coordination of care in chronic disease management targeting hardly reached groups. The presentation will address how uptake and engagement potentially can be increased by using co-design approaches, including collaboration with end-users and organisations throughout the process of intervention design and testing.
Dr Nana Folmann Hempler is a research group leader at the Health Promotion Research unit at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen, Denmark and president of the Danish Society of Public Health. Nana has expertise in developing, testing and dissemination research-based interventions focusing on providing sustainable care and health promotion for people with or at high risk of type 2 diabetes. Her research focuses on hardly reached groups and include complex interventions, implementation research, digital public health and design-based research where solutions are developed and implemented in collaboration with end-users and other stakeholders. She leads an active consumer program in the Danish Island Bornholm. This research investigates implementation and evaluation of a largescale digital intervention aiming to increase access to care for people with multimorbidity.

Dr. Olga Perski
From static to dynamic tailoring: realising the potential of digital health interventions
The tailoring of intervention change strategies or delivery features according to characteristics of a single individual have long been part of the behavioural scientist’s toolkit. However, recent research drawing on technology-mediated assessments of behaviours, cognitions, and emotions in people’s daily lives highlights that many health behaviours are complex – i.e., they fluctuate over time, differ from person to person, and are influenced by several factors (e.g., weather, time of day, motivation, stress). This presentation will provide a discussion of i) why dynamic tailoring is poised as important for improving the effectiveness of digital health interventions, ii) what methods are currently used to enable dynamic tailoring within, for example, just-in-time adaptive interventions, and iii) what key questions remain to be addressed in order to safely and effectively deliver dynamically tailored digital health interventions that people want to engage with.
Dr Olga Perski is an interdisciplinary researcher working at the intersection of behavioural science, public health, and technology. She is currently a Senior Research Fellow at University College London. Her work is focused on the development, optimisation, and evaluation of interventions for smoking cessation and alcohol reduction delivered via smartphone apps, chatbots, virtual reality, and in hybrid human-digital format. She is interested in the technology-enabled, real-time assessment and modelling of within-person processes and the development of just-in-time adaptive interventions. In fall 2022, she will begin a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship to develop a dynamic computational model of lapse risk in smokers attempting to stop, splitting her time across UC San Diego and Tampere University.
