Mastering the art of healthcare communication
Joanna Abraham
The ever-increasing complexity of electronic health records threatens to drown clinicians and patients in a sea of data. As more information is generated and collected, the potential for miscommunication and health care error increases. But if technology has created this problem, then a new generation of biomedical informaticians and visualization designers, may help with the solution. That’s the focus of the innovative work of researchers in the Department of Biomedical and Health Information Sciences (BHIS)—who believe that the way to transform health care is through bridging trusted science and visual communication.
