What a fantastic session at CHI2023! Great to be a part of the latest exciting work in AI and Health!

[Association of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) @hcinteraction]

RT @FMCalisto: It was so great to share the stage with all of you! The “AI for Health” track was one of the best at #CHI2023… Congratulations to the chair Sang Won Bae!

Health researchers @ #CSCW2022! Come join for our second health hangout in the CSCW Gathertown lobby! @ACM_CSCW
Mon 11/14 (5 pm PT / 7 pm CT / 8 pm ET) or AM Tue 11/15 (6:30 am IST / 9 am SST / 10 am JST)

[Eleanor (Ellie) Burgess, PhD @Ellie_HCI]

@amyxzh Yeah let's do it! My first thought about this system is that it feels like it "humanizes" the paper. You hear the author's voice saying words that are often part of the fabric of the paper, and that is so lovely.

[Eleanor (Ellie) Burgess, PhD @Ellie_HCI]

There's a ton going on here but just in the first 30 seconds of use I'm feeling excited about this new tool!

[Amy Zhang @amyxzh]

Now that #cscw2022 has begun, please check out a system that we're deploying at CSCW that showcases a new way to experience papers and talk videos in tandem! We call it a "papeo" (paper+video 😄). You can see some papeos of CSCW papers here ➡️ https://t.co/ep82v2WkAd

[Eleanor (Ellie) Burgess, PhD @Ellie_HCI]

Calling all health researchers attending #CSCW2022! Join our health hangouts in Gathertown! @ACM_CSCW
1. Tue 11/08 (8 am PT / 10 am CT / 11 am PT / 4 pm GMT / 5 pm CET / 9:30 pm IST)
2. Mon 11/14 (5 pm PT / 7 pm CT / 8 pm ET) or AM Tue 11/15 (6:30 am IST / 9 am SST / 10 am JST)

[Eleanor (Ellie) Burgess, PhD @Ellie_HCI]

Very interesting perspectives!

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

Read these 3 pages. I post them every so often because I think it is some of the tightest, wisdom-packed writing on managing complex systems ever.

And almost every system is a complex system today, which is why cascading failures are swirling around us. https://t.co/pnNlFLvVdz

A powerful idea from https://t.co/JyG2LE578u is that supporters can make it easier for patients/caregivers to get what they *really* need by providing a menu of help options. Eg., "Hi, [name]! I can walk your dog, rake leaves, pick up groceries, and/or send some prayers. Lmk!"

Every academic knows that the BEST software for citation and reference management is Zotero.

BUT many folks don't know how to take notes and annotate PDFs in Zotero.

Here's how to get started 👇

I love these simple notes. So, so true. Especially the "lean" question. When I have to repeat a question in an interview it is usually because the question was too wordy and people got a little lost :)

I love this point from J. Nielsen: "User interfaces and human behavior are both so complex that the interaction between the two does not lend itself to pure guesses based on personal opinion. You need data to learn what works, what doesn’t work, and what users really need."

[Eleanor (Ellie) Burgess, PhD @Ellie_HCI]

@cfiesler Big congrats! For his sabbaticals, my dad did international research for 3-6 mo! Was very fun for us as a family to accompany him to new places.
