USAB 2007 - Usability & HCI for Medicine and Health Care
3rd Symposium of the Austrian Computer Society, WG HCI&UE
NOVEMBER 22, 2007, Graz, Austria

Technological performance increases exponentially and Medical Information Systems and Decision Support Systems are extremely sophisticated. However, human cognitive performance does not advance at the same speed. Consequently, the focus on interaction and communication between human and computer is of increasing importance.

In order to further promote the collaboration between Psychology and Computer Science, we are inviting your contribution to the USAB 07.

We are seeking high quality papers, which will be reviewed by at least
three independent reviewers. Accepted contributions will be published by
Springer in their series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
Suggestions for Tutorials and Workshops are also welcome.

Topics include but are not limited to:

    * Medical Usability and New Research Methodologies
    * Formal Methods and Methodologies
    * Human-Computer Interaction in Health Care
    * Usability of Medical Information Systems
    * Human Aspects of Future Technologies in Health Care
