Launching a Center for Consumer Health Informatics Research

We are very excited that the Nova Southeastern University College of Pharmacy has officially launched our Center for Consumer Health Informatics Research (CCHIR)! Like all undertakings of this magnitude, it has been in the works for some time and has benefited from tremendous support from many corners - in particular the Chair of the Department of Pharmacy Practice and the Dean of the College of Pharmacy. Below is a presentation outlining some basics about the Center. I look forward to working with its faculty and collaborators and steering the CCHIR toward many great developments in the future.

Launching a Center for Consumer Health Informatics Research

I was recently invited to present an overview of the Center on a panel at the American Medical Informatics Association Annual Symposium for the Consumer Health Informatics Working Group (CHI WG). It was a great opportunity to connect with others in the CHI space and share some of the things we have ongoing and in the pipeline. A quick overview of the Twitter activity during that meeting, including who the top tweeters were can also be found here.
