An open innovation approach to co-produce scientific knowledge: an examination of citizen science in the healthcare ecosystem

Abstract: PurposeThe article applies the citizen science phenomenon – i.e. lay people involvement in research endeavours aimed at pushing forward scientific knowledge – to healthcare. Attention is paid to initiatives intended to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic as an illustrative case to exemplify the contribution of citizen science to system-wide innovation in healthcare.Design/methodology/approachA mixed methodology consisting of three sequential steps was developed. Firstly, a realist literature review was carried out to… Show more

“…While this focus was deliberate and sufficiently motivated, the value of reviews that adopt a specific focus such as specific perspectives and sectors cannot be understated. As existing reviews on the accommodation, hospitality, tourism, and transportation sectors exist [14,26], alternative areas of the sharing economy could be explored, for example, coworking, crowdfunding, crowdsourcing, knowledge and talent sharing (e.g., citizen science; [15]), and reselling or retrading, among others. The context of the sharing economy itself could also be subject to further scrutiny, for example, physical-, digital-, omnichannel-, and in the future, metaverse-related sharing.…”

More recently, great attention has gone into examining the role of users in driving open innovation and co-creating service delivery models in different service sectors including healthcare, travel and tourism and retailing [26].…”
