When Digital Meets Medical: The Next Generation Clinical TrialCeline Pering
Proteus Digital Health is pioneering a new product paradigm at the intersection of the medical and consumer worlds. We make regulated medical products that are used by regular people in everyday life, so they need to behave more like consumer products. User research, to refine medical products, is done using highly controlled clinical trials, while great consumer products are generally created using very different design research methodologies. Attendees will learn how cross-pollination of the clinical research with the best of consumer research opens up a whole new discipline ripe for exploration.

Biocat organized a workshop ((January 24, 2014, dHUB Building, Barcelona) about the application of Design Thinking in Health, a strategic topic with strong growth potential. The goals of the event are to provide a general overview of the methodology - considered by some as a true “work philosophy” for problem solving - as well as to explain its origins, fields of application, main benefits and to identify opportunities to innovate in health.
Decision CAMP 2013 - christian middleton - jawbone - Facts, Rules, and Constr...Decision CAMP
Keeping consumers engaged in their efforts to acquire and maintain a healthy lifestyle is a continuing challenge. In this talk, we describe a rule-based “eco system” in which information from a wearable sensor is synchronized with a smartphone that, in turn, synchronizes with the cloud.
Specifically, movement and sleep data is retrieved from the sensor
device via the phone; this data is then integrated with dietary and geolocation data stored on the phone, and then aggregated with other user’s data on the cloud. This talk describes how Jawbone implemented a cloud based RBS in order to notify users with insights that inform them of their progress towards a healthy lifestyle. The social aspect of the application allows building rules that incorporate data from friends and people with similar characteristics, providing more interesting insights.
Health is an internationally-recognized, fundamental, human right. However, only 13% of the global population accounts for 76% of the global medical device use, illustrating inequitable healthcare access in favor of high-resource settings ( Arasaratnam & Humphreys 2013 ). In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), medical devices go unused because they were not designed for the uses, users, and contexts for those settings. We believe human factors and usability engineering practitioners can play a critical role in delivering equitable access to medical technology worldwide.
In March of 2023, Elizabeth Johansen and Beth Loring gave a presentation at the 2023 HFES International Symposium on Human Factors and Ergonomics in Healthcare explaining how an international consortium used human- centered design and human factors engineering methods to develop an open-access report titled, “Design for Oxygen Concentrator Usability in Under-Resourced Settings: An evidence-based guide to designing oxygen concentrators, humidifier bottles, and flow splitters to address the oxygen gap in healthcare settings in low and middle-income countries.” You can download the report for free here. https://www.unicef.org/supply/documents/design-oxygen-concentrator-usability-under-resourced-healthcare-settings

Healthcare's Grand Hackfest Keynote - HOWTO: Project ScopingSpark Health Design
On March 14, 2014, Design that Matters Director of Product Development, Elizabeth Johansen, delivered a keynote to kick off over 300 participants as part of Healthcare's Grand Hackfest. The presentation gave insight into Design that Matters' process creating a point of view for your project. The point of view has three elements:
1. The Need (why) - going beyond desires, to real needs
2. The Users (who) - all the stakeholders who will make your project successful
3. The Context (where, when, what) - the context for which you will design.
About Healthcare's Grand Hackfest
Focused on pioneering healthcare's greatest innovations, this hackathon will be unlike any other in the past. For the first time ever, we will be partnering with industry's leading organizations to accelerate breakthrough ideas developed over the course of one weekend.

Unite for Sight Workshop: Using the Point of View to Bridge Research and ActionSpark Health Design
On April 21, 2012, Design that Matters Director of Product Development Elizabeth Johansen and Designer William Harris facilitated a workshop for over 50 participants at the annual Unite for Sight conference. In the workshop, the DtM team presented a common tool used on all their programs: the point of view. During the workshop, participants immersed in the world of newborn intensive care units in developing countries. Audience members formed multi-disciplinary teams, learned visual note-taking, derived insights from their observations, and used the insights to form a project point of view. Teams compared different points of view and reflected how the skills each team brought to the table led to different potential solutions. So many solutions are needed to combat newborn mortality in developing countries, that many must simultaneously work on the challenge for us to make a big impact.
About Unite for Sight
The Global Health & Innovation Conference (#GHIC) is the world's leading and largest global health conference as well as the largest social entrepreneurship conference, with 2,200 professionals and students from all 50 states and more than 55 countries.

On September 8, 2011, Design that Matters Director of Product Development, Elizabeth Johansen, co-facilitated a workshop at SOCAP11 alongside Sami Nerenberg of Design for America and Saul Garlick of Think Impact. The workshop was part of a series of design thinking workshops curated by Sarah Brooks.
In design, after immersing with the stakeholders, one of the most difficult and little-explained next steps is to take all of those observations and turn them into frameworks to guide the design going forward. Design that Matters, Think Impact, and Design for America co-created a workshop to give participants a crash course in framing challenges. Think Impact provided a case study and observations from the field. Then participants were asked to imagine a better future together.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
