About
Janne Pesu is a leading researcher at the intersection of digital health, social care, and environmental sustainability. Their work critically examines how distance-spanning solutions—such as remote care and digital home health services—can reduce carbon footprints while maintaining quality of care, particularly within Nordic welfare systems. Pesu’s major contributions include pioneering combined climate and social impact assessments, demonstrating that digitalization in healthcare must be evaluated not only for efficiency but for its holistic sustainability. In their 2024 study on distance-spanning solutions, Pesu highlighted the climate and sustainability synergies of remote care, while their 2025 case study in Finland provided a novel framework for assessing the environmental and social trade-offs of digital home care. Though early in citation impact, these works are foundational for a rapidly growing field. Pesu’s research is vital for policymakers and practitioners seeking to decarbonize healthcare without compromising equity or access—a critical challenge for the 21st century.
