Klaus Hoeyer is professor of medical science and technology studies at the University of Copenhagen. He works with the organization and regulation of the healthcare system with a particular focus on the introduction of new medical technologies. His area of expertise is ethics as a form of regulation and exchange systems for human bodily materials and health data. His previous research has explored, e.g., research biobanking, stem cells, property issues, forensic biobanking, public-private partnerships and public perceptions of genetics. More recent work has concentrated on data-intensive healthcare and the performativity of hopes, promises and expectations in the shaping of new technology.
