Work in Progress

A brief history of time in

dental informatics

Titus Schleyer, DMD, PhDJune 12, 2013

Center for Biomedical Informatics Titus Schleyer, 2013


2/26

Goals

comprehensively review 20 years ofdental informatics research

specifically, Titus 60+ papers

Ok, lets get started with Paper #1.


3/26

Goals

selectively review 20 years of dentalinformatics research

learn a little bit about me and (some of)

my philosophy discuss (briefly) where we can go

together

Cognitive task analysis initial, sequential review of:

patient information

medical, dental and social

history medications

medical consults

cross-referencing of medications,

and medical history and consults

rapid switching and concurrent

review of:

hard tissue chart

images x-rays

occasional note-taking

note-taking with

occasional referencing

of various artifacts

A word abouthuman-computer interaction

woven into most of our research heavily influenced by

Carnegie Mellon University

user-centered design

new methods (e.g. KLM)

Overarching question:

How do we produce better designs faster?

Takeaway points

Our work is mainly interdisciplinary.Interdisciplinarity is difficult.

Cross the Valley of Death decisively and effectively.

Look for projects that make a significant difference.

True innovation often requires highly fundamental work.

Innovating for a broad audience requires deep

understanding of use and needs.

Automation is reaching farther than we think. You can succeed and fail at the same time.

Dont forget about advancing your infrastructure.


25/26

A few observations on informatics

Informatics is operating in achanged landscape.

Industry has difficulty innovating.

Academic informatics is marginalized.

Custom development is (almost) out.

Informatics is a confused term. It means

(almost) nothing to the public.
