These trends inspired active research in machine learning and data mining; they also present new opportunities for research in interactive systems. There remain many open questions as to how to design interactive solutions that leverage new streams of personal and social data and new data science capabilities to promote self-management of chronic diseases. In my research, I investigate these questions in the context of self-management of type 2 diabetes, and, specifically, nutrition management. In this talk I will discuss several ongoing research initiatives that strive to help individuals make informed choices by reflecting on the past, anticipating the future, and learning from others.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EBio:\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EI am an Assistant\u0026nbsp;Professor of Biomedical Informatics in the Department of Biomedical\u0026nbsp;Informatics at Columbia University. My primary research interests reside in\u0026nbsp;the areas of Biomedical\u0026nbsp;Informatics, Human-Computer Interaction, Ubiquitous\u0026nbsp;and Pervasive Computing, and Computer-Supported Collaborative Work.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nMy broad research\u0026nbsp;interests include individual and collective cognition,\u0026nbsp;sensemaking\u0026nbsp;and\u0026nbsp;problem-solving\u0026nbsp;in the context of health, health\u0026nbsp;care, and health management. My research group,\u0026nbsp;Action\u0026nbsp;Research for Collective\u0026nbsp;Health\u0026nbsp;(ARCH)\u0026nbsp;views health and health management as residing\u0026nbsp;within families, communities, and societies, and as impacted by culture,\u0026nbsp;business, and policy. In ARCH,\u0026nbsp;we develop novel technologies that help\u0026nbsp;individuals to take a proactive stance towards their own health and to change\u0026nbsp;their environment to make healthy and responsible lifestyle accessible to\u0026nbsp;everyone.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nAt the same time, I am\u0026nbsp;interested in the functioning of the healthcare system and in the ways it\u0026nbsp;adapts to the changing demands and expectations of the society. I study how\u0026nbsp;clinicians collect and\u0026nbsp;use information to make decisions in regards to\u0026nbsp;patient care, how clinicians on patient care teams communicate and coordinate\u0026nbsp;their work and make decisions together, how clinical communities\u0026nbsp;share\u0026nbsp;knowledge and expertise, and how computing technologies facilitate or inhibit\u0026nbsp;these processes.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nI received my B.S. in\u0026nbsp;Computer Science from the Ukrainian State University of Maritime Technology,\u0026nbsp;M.S. in Human Computer Interaction from the Georgia Institute of Technology,\u0026nbsp;Ph.D. in\u0026nbsp;Human-Centered Computing from the Georgia Institute of Technology,\u0026nbsp;and M.A. in Biomedical Informatics from Columbia University. My dissertation\u0026nbsp;work at Georgia Tech focused on\u0026nbsp;facilitating reflection and learning in\u0026nbsp;context of diabetes management with mobile and ubiquitous computing. Prior to\u0026nbsp;joining DBMI as a faculty member, I completed a National Library of\u0026nbsp;Medicine\u0026nbsp;Post-Doctoral Fellowship at the department.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"IPaT and GVU are happy to host this lecture by our alum Lena Mamykina.
