DESCRIPTION:Since the late 20th century\, expectations of both healthcare p
 roviders and patients have changed towards a model of active patients. Pat
 ients show signs of interest in engaging in their medical care in various 
 ways to enhance their health. Healthcare providers also encourage patients
  to monitor their health statuses and set their own health goals. However\
 , it is challenging to increase patients’ involvement in their care\; su
 ch strategies may place extra pressure on the patients’ shoulders or int
 errupt healthcare providers’ practices. While research shows that techno
 logy can help mitigate potential challenges that patients and healthcare p
 roviders face\, the questions of how\, where\, and what technologies to de
 sign remain unanswered.\n\nIn my research\, I address the need to design e
 ffective technologies and information visualization systems that can help 
 patients and healthcare providers increase patient engagement in their car
 e. In this talk\, I will discuss designing and developing visualizations t
 o (1) support patients with making data-driven decisions about their care\
 ; (2) improve communicating patient self-tracked health data with healthca
 re providers during clinical visits\; (3) facilitate analyzing and reviewi
 ng patient medical data collaboratively with healthcare providers during c
 linical visits.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Fateme Rajabiyazdi\, \n\nOttawa\, Ontar
