People with disabilities face information inequities in healthcare via decisions that donβt take their lived experiences into account.
In our paper in @PlosDigiHealth, we show how #digitalhealth and #NLProc can help reduce these inequities.

#MedInfo23
Excited and honoured to be a part of this fantastic panel at #MEDINFO23. In a datafied world we need to be talking much more (and much more critically) about disability data, and I'm thrilled to be part of an amazing group of speakers bringing that conversation to the stage.
The #MEDINFO23 Monday afternoon plenary session is centred on the theme of the conference - THE FUTURE IS ACCESSIBLE. Get to know our panelists Gillian Mason (facilitator), Liz Salmi, Denis Newman-Griffis, Rachel Dunscombe, Nas Campanella, Juanita Fernando.

And worth noting: the ACL policy is not and never was intended to fix this problem. This is a research culture problem, and changing it means changing our appointment, promotion, and funding metrics, so itβs a big deal that will not happen until it absolutely must.
