Very happy to see one more of my #PhD articles published!! Participatory approaches, such as co-research, co-design, Patient and Public Involvement (#PPI), and Participatory Action Research, are increasingly being incorporated into digital health innovation. However, their application in cancer-related digital and #AI tool lifecycle remains insufficiently synthesised, limiting understanding of how participatory approaches influence ethical outcomes, trust, and the real-world implementation of these technologies. This review moves beyond documenting participatory approaches to critically examine how far participation extends across the AI lifecycle, and how this limits ethical and trust-related outcomes. A special thanks to Carla Reigada for her special collaboration on this SHINE 2Europe piece 💪 - of course to my PhD supervisors for their support and expertise Ana Sofia Carvalho & Elísio Costa  And to all co-authors from the MAYA Project: Miriam Cabrita, Alexandros Mitsis, Cristina Ghiță, PhD, Marius Geanta, MD, PhD, Félix Jesús Villanueva, Ikechukwu Nkisi-Orji, Tuukka Hakkarainen, Georgia Karanasiou, PMP, Dimitris Fotiadis OPEN ACCESS download available at: https://lnkd.in/ekGP_DPu
