Abstract

The ubiquity of mobile technology and advances in wearable health and well-being technologies offer exciting opportunities for technology supported home and community care. But are we ready for digitally enabled self-care? How can the CHI community share best practices and methods in order to continue to advance research that crosses methodological and cultural boundaries between Health and HCI? This workshop will bring together key researchers working in and across both HCI and Health to share these existing challenges and opportunities for digital health research and practice and to continue to build capacity in the crossings between HCI and health.
