JMIR Public Health Surveill
November 2023
Article Synopsis
- Culturally and linguistically diverse populations are often left out of public health research, leading to biased results and limited understanding of their health needs.
- Modern machine translation tools could help bridge language gaps in public health outreach materials, making information more accessible.
- A review of existing studies found limited use of machine translation in public health, mainly focusing on one-way communication, with little to no research on its role in recruiting diverse participants for studies.
