Join us for an experiential workshop on principles and practices of human-centered design applied to medicine, research, and healthcare at-large. In this interactive workshop, attendees will play with ideas and materials in teams, becoming more comfortable with navigating ambiguity, prototyping, and unlocking idea flows. There is no homework required, and no prior experience or knowledge is necessary. Light refreshments will be provided. Implementation Science for Innovation & Discovery series is hosted each month by Dr. Octavian Ioachimescu. Sessions are generally offered the fourth Monday of each month (excluding December).
