Presenter

Shilo Anders, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Anesthesiology with secondary appointments in both Biomedical Informatics and Computer Science. Her research applies approaches from human factors engineering to improve patient safety in healthcare. She is interested in research on system design, individual and team performance and decision making, and improvements in patient safety and care quality. Dr. Anders is helping to make health information technology (HIT) more efficient, effective and be better integrated into the clinical workflow through user-centered design, workflow analysis, and cognitive task analysis. In addition, she is applying human factors engineering methods to design, develop, and evaluate patient-facing healthcare technologies. Dr Anders teaches and co-teaches courses in computer science and biomedical informatics.

Dr Anders will discuss using systems engineering to advance how we visualize and share AI generated data in a way that is clear, understandable, and actionable in the healthcare space. These findings will come from three different projects where she is part of a larger team seeking to implement AI/ML models into different healthcare domains, including the Emergency Department and Primary Care. Dr Anders will focus on how using macroergonomic principles for the development and deployment of these tools is meant to keep the human-in-the-loop.
