Education:
- PhD, Department of Design Sciences, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University, Sweden (2020)
Dissertation: Paving the way for transparency – How eHealth technology can change boundaries in healthcare
Research Interests:
Petersson investigates the intersection of digitalisation and healthcare practice. She explores how information transparency and AI-driven tools alter collaborative boundary work among healthcare professionals. A particular focus lies on patient-facing technologies such as Open Notes and their impact on traditional care relationships. Her work also addresses ethical, regulatory, and organisational challenges surrounding AI implementation in clinical settings.
Publication Trends:
Recent publications (2022-2025) cluster around three dominant themes: (1) AI implementation frameworks and cocreation methodologies, (2) professional boundary dynamics triggered by digital tools, and (3) patient-centred perspectives on AI and eHealth. Qualitative interview and mixed-methods designs are recurrent, reflecting a commitment to understanding lived experiences of both healthcare professionals and patients.
