However, there was a peak of male students in 2003 of 12.4% which was followed by a significant decline to 4.6% in 2012 and only a slight recovery to 6.2% in 2016. Female students consistently increased from 2.7% in 2001 to 3.9% in 2016 demonstrating growing female interest especially in comparison to the male interest.

In many places, people are more likely to have access to a mobile than to clean water. There is over 7billion mobile subscriptions across the world with over 70% of them being in low-middle income countries. Digital health tech could revolutionise how we access, deliver, treat and educate healthcare all across the globe.

Of those, 25% reported being concerned about how companies might use their health data.

This data is directly related to my research topic on wearable health technologies. It shows both the growing adoption of these devices and the ethical concerns around data privacy and consent. It highlights how individuals are starting to question who has access to their data and how it might be used beyond personal health monitoring.
