E-Health Workshop
Workshop in the context of BCS HCI, September 1-5, 2008, Liverpool, John
Moores University http://www.hci2008.org
Submission Deadline: 14th July, 2008
E-health refers to information and health services delivered via the
Internet or related technologies. Whilst the figures suggest that the
Internet is an e-health success story issues surrounding the credibility
of information, disclosure of sensitive information and personalisation
raise important questions for researchers and designers alike. The move
towards ubiquitous computing together with location and context aware
devices accentuates these concerns and highlights the relevance of
trust, privacy and security to the debate. The current growth in social
networking sites and the notion of web 2.0 is facilitating the exchange
of information and advice amongst patients but how are users managing
their disclosure preferences and their trusting relationships? In a
sensitive domain such as health we need to understand the ways in which
people 'leak information' and how service integration can be achieved in
an individually and socially acceptable manner. This one-day workshop
aims to bring together an interdisciplinary group of researchers and
practitioners to discuss how the fields of human computer interaction
and applied psychology can address the issues raised by the growing
domain of e-health. We welcome position papers and/or original work (max
4 pages) which address these themes.
Topics include (but are not limited to):
Trust and credibility issues
Privacy and disclosure issues
Social networking and web 2.0 issues for health Ubiquitous computing
technologies for health Personalization and customisation of interfaces
and technologies Patient/user experience Location awareness and tracking
Context aware systems in the health domain Integration issues E-health
case studies
