Hanna Allemann

Lecturer

My teaching in the nursing programme focuses on communication and equitable care. My research centers on support for informal carers, and I am currently curious about whether artifical intelligence can provide relevant support to those who need it.

Presentation

My motivation is to make an impact – both in the education of our future nurses and in research on informal carers of people with heart failure.

In my role as a lecturer, I primarily focus on professional communication and equitable care. I aim to enhance students’ understanding of how nurses can work with these aspects to contribute to 'good' and safe care. I particularly enjoy discussing these topics with our students. I also supervise undergraduate theses. Additionally, I am the 'deputy course coordinator' for the fourth semester of the programme and a member of the undergraduate programme committee and the board of the Forum for Gender Studies and Equality.

Part of my working time is also dedicated to research. I completed my PhD in December 2023, and my research, both during my doctoral studies and ongoing work, focuses on supporting informal carers of people with heart failure. We have co-designed a digital support programme with and for informal carers, which we are currently testing in a randomised controlled trial to learn more about its impact on users.

Moreover, I am interested in exploring how AI might be helpful. I have initiated a project using a refined large language model (based on Copilot and Azure) to investigate its potential and limitations as relevant support.

Through my master’s education and doctoral studies, as well as my practice as a university lecturer, I have gained in-depth knowledge in areas such as communication, equitable care, health economics, leadership, implementation, and user-focused AI design in healthcare. Prior to my work at the University, I have also studied visual communication (including graphic design, production, web design, and marketing). This has enriched both my teaching and research and prepared me to adopt multiple perspectives and collaborate with researchers from other fields.
