Artistic Representation of brainwaves in the body

Dr Kim Whitehead, co-leading the EEG Committee for Reliability with R4N, from DHATA is pleased to share a guide co-produced with members of the public about how to explain and use bioelectrical health data (electrical health signals recorded from our body). It collates participants’ preferences about how these data are best described with words and images, and their perceptions around their use for research and by artificial intelligence (AI). The guide sprang from a London Data Week event held at the London Institute for Healthcare Engineering, in collaboration with Dr Lili Golmohammadi, and is an important part of including diverse voices in health data conversations.

The Guide: A co-produced guide for how to explain and use bioelectrical health data

The guide includes explaining how brainwaves can look normal, what they are like as resting states and when a seizure is occurring as shown below.
