Among the questions that Mårten Blix tries to answer with his research:
- What do we know about the effects of digitalization on health care?
- How is the Swedish welfare model affected by digitalization?
- What can we learn from Sweden’s experience in privatizing welfare services?
- What is Sweden’s ability to adapt to digitalization – regionally and nationally?
