Information Visualization for Medical Informatics

Ben Shneiderman Department of Computer Science and University of Maryland Institute for Advanced Computer Studies (UMIACS) ISR Affiliated Professor Abstract Effective medical care depends on well-designed user interfaces that enable users to benefit from the increasing abundance of information that supports decision making. Novel strategies in information visualization allow clinicians and medical researchers to explore in systematic yet flexible ways, so as to derive insights and make discoveries. This talk begins with commercial success stories such as www.spotfire.com, www.smartmoney.com/marketmap and www.hivegroup.com and explores their application to medical informatics. Then we look at research tools for electronic health records to find specified event sequences and to view compact summaries of millions of patient histories. Demonstrations also cover visual interfaces to support clinicians in understanding patient status, making correct orders, and tracking medical lab tests (www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/sharp). Biography Ben Shneiderman is a Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Founding Director (1983-2000) of the Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory at the University of Maryland.
