Sarah de Heer is a doctoral candidate at the Faculty of Law at Lund University. In her doctoral research, she examines the impact of AI-driven medical devices in precision medicine on the right to health in Sweden. More specifically, Sarah scrutinises to which extent the conformity assessment procedure, which allows medical devices to be placed on the internal market of the European Union, can safeguard the quality pillar under the right to health.
