Human-centered AI safety
We study when clinical AI misleads, encourages inappropriate agreement, or changes trust and judgment.

Human Experience and Advancement Lab
We study how healthcare systems and artificial intelligence shape clinical judgment, relationships, and work—so that innovation supports the people delivering and receiving care.

Our research
Human questions. Clinical evidence.
A closer look at what technology changes.
We study when clinical AI misleads, encourages inappropriate agreement, or changes trust and judgment.
We examine how workload, team coordination, and technology affect the delivery of care.
We examine how physicians develop expertise and how artificial intelligence changes their work.
