Description

To apply evidence-based design, you have to know what the best available evidence is. But research is published faster than anyone can read it. How can researchers and practitioners keep up with the most recent work? In this rapid-fire session, researchers from The Center for Health Design will use their own visual abstracts to present the takeaways for 10 articles from the past year, discussing what we’ve learned and what we still need to know. This session will allow participants to walk away with a better understanding of the latest, coolest research, through a visual synthesis.But more: It will provide a shared body of knowledge for the health design community.
