Wellcome Trust
We were commissioned by the Wellcome Trust to examine the ethical, social, and political implications of the use of AI in health and medical research. We went beyond issues that have already been identified, such as those around the use of patient data and algorithmic transparency, to explore whether these new technologies throw up new ethical issues, or challenge existing ethical principles in new ways. The Wellcome Trust announced £1 million in funding.

Movember
We worked with men’s health charity Movember to develop their advocacy strategy. Together we identified how they could best play to their strengths, where they could add most value, and how they can have the biggest impact. Movember is working to bring about change across its three cause areas – prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health. Founded in 2003, it has raised almost US$1 billion and implemented programmes in 20 countries.

Ethical, Social, and Political Challenges of Artificial Intelligence in Health
Future Advocacy was commissioned by the Wellcome Trust to look at the ethical, social, and political implications of the use of AI in health and medical research. We wanted to go beyond issues that have already been identified, such as those around the use of patient data and algorithmic transparency, to explore whether these new technologies throw up new ethical issues, or challenge existing ethical principles in new ways. The Wellcome Trust is using the findings to inform future funding programmes.
