How do we balance efficiency, adaptation to new technologies, and BEAUTY / HUMANITY in healthcare design? For thoughts, listen to @BonKu interview Michael Murphy from @MASSDesignLab. Amazing @DesignLabPod episode! open.spotify.com/episode/1Wf…

Wonderful interview of our collaborator @mtrowbr by @BonKu. So many themes that are core to our mission — health impacts of the built environment, economic externalities, need for companies to own impacts of their products & more podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Need a feel good article after a long week? @jimcoan, a dear friend and colleague of mine here at @UVA, uses functional MRI to show the positive impact of touch (ie. hand-holding during medical procedures). Turns out we really do need hugs! Check it out: news.virginia.edu/content/do…
Now this is progress. Proud and relieved to see experts like my friend and UVA colleague @DrCameronWebb in position to help Biden administration’s COVID efforts. Perfect person for the job. theguardian.com/us-news/2021…
Yikes! How did I miss this! @DrTTKH @traciroserider @dmiris2 all together in one session dispensing designing for health awesomeness? 🤩 Please tell me there’s a recording.
“Strive to design based on the best of sciences, grounded in empirical evidence.” Great inspiration from @DrTTKH to start a Tuesday @AIANational workshop on health in design for learning! @dmiris2 @NCStateDesign #thinkanddo
History of mandated seat belt use to prevent traffic injuries offers a reference point for mask mandates during COVID. Laws to regulate second-hand tobacco smoke come to mind as well. Same tensions at play: What is the cost of “freedom” (in lives lost)? apple.news/Anis9pl-UQkyFKGlJ…
@UVA is a leader in wastewater surveillance testing for COVID-19. Great podcast from @drsanjaygupta highlighting the leadership of Dr. Amy Mathers to help monitor and prevent outbreaks in dorms and other facilities here on grounds. news.virginia.edu/content/cn…
Graphic design has power... particularly when not scrutinized. Example we red / blue whole counties on vote maps without showing population density. Until now! Check this cool visualization. apple.news/AstwLjIVxRYubBvy1…
Per @profgalloway, S.F. commercial real estate vacancies went from lowest in history to highest in 6 months. He predicts a coming ‘tsunami’ capital shift from commercial to residential property. How can public health prepare to promote affordable housing? overcast.fm/+OwaLLwuaA/42:09
In today’s episode of @PivotSchooled @profgalloway references Airbnb CEO and others as sign that design is emerging as a key new skill set / competency in business (and elsewhere). I agree!Take a listen. overcast.fm/+OwaKosEFM/47:09
Fun message from ResearchGate this morning. Nice reminder that we’re still part of an active global community even if we aren’t leaving our homes that much these days!

All I want to read tomorrow is a 2,000-word profile of the team who handled the closed captioning for this debate.
Want to do something awesome for an awesome group of people trying to do something awesome? Take a moment to subscribe, listen, & rate @BonKu @RSPugliese ‘Design Lab’ podcast. It’s really really good. And takes a lot of work to produce. Help his team out! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Please RT! We’re hosting a virtual gathering for folks who share our belief that design can be restorative.
7 brilliant speakers will help us explore design’s relationship to complex topics such as trauma, white supremacy and the built environment.

What an awesome new podcast! Wonderful conversation b/w @BonKu @ellenLupton about moments for creativity in daily life; even for busy folks like doctors. I know + adore both these folks. But my recommendation is 100% data driven. Listen up! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Everyone needs to check this out. @BonKu @RSPugliese are among the best in the health design biz. Can’t wait to tune in & join the discussion!

Demystifying design collaboration! All design projects should start in a Google Doc by @TedGoas in @uxdesigncc uxdesign.cc/all-design-proje…
Thanks @NCStateDesign for chance to share my experience learning to teach #designthinking to @UVAHealth medical students. Honor to present alongside @BonKu @ellenLupton and Jacqui McLaughlin PhD today. Amazing discussion! Video of my short talk here. youtu.be/EZpKElgQ1X0

Today, I learned that parish registers — church records – were a key data source for officials mitigating the spread of plague in England, but a failure to correct for a distributed lag time made it look as if the Black Death passed slowly through towns: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1465…
