This talk will attempt to give participants a (very light) idea of data visualization research by breaking down the why, what, how of visual design from the perspectives of cognitive & computer sciences. This brief foray into the academic study of visualization will be followed by a practical example of visualizing cancer prognostic risk. Those attending the talk should expect to learn some guidelines for how to design and appraise a data visualization beginning with problems & data to the final visual presentation. Bring a pen, pencil, or tablet to participate in small exercises.

Much of health research seeks to improve health by focussing on the new – new treatments, new evidence etc. In contrast, health decision science seeks to improve health by improving the choices made with available evidence – recognizing uncertainty, complexity, competing values, tradeoffs and cognitive biases can frequently lead to decision errors.
Presenter Nick Bansback will take us through examples of how decision errors that lead to poor choices in our day to day lives, and translate these into areas where decision science has the potential to improve health.
