Designing Opportunities for AI and UX in Healthcare

Jofish Kaye & Erika Poole

Anthem Health Platforms


The UCI Department of Informatics is proud to present Jofish Kaye, Senior Director, Interaction Design & Artificial Intelligence, and Erika Poole, Director, User Research, Anthem Health Platforms.

Abstract:
What if doctors could pick the right medicines for you, not based on a limited clinical trial of 500 people, or the few hundred people they’d personally seen in their career, but instead on the medical records of millions of people with the same diseases in the real world? Machine learning has made such advances possible, but that work raises very real problems when end users, like doctors and nurses, interact with recommendations based on inference from large datasets, rather than from clinical trials. In this talk, Jofish and Erika talk about their work at Anthem Health Platforms at the intersection of AI, UR, IxD, and healthcare: about the processes to make that work happen, some guidelines for building such interfaces, and the implications of this work for HCI and Informatics.
