*Workshop on *

*Advancing Health and Wellness Technology Research *

*in Home and Community Settings*



*Call for Participation*



We invite papers and case studies from people working in the cross-over
between health and HCI in a non clinical setting (technology for the home
and community setting rather than hospital or GP based systems). We would
like papers to highlight what the key challenges in this area are from
recruiting users and patients to designing with and for diverse
stakeholders to methodologies for evaluating in homes, communities and at
scale.

The goal of the workshop is to share experiences and to identify not only
the challenges of working between these two disciplines but also the
opportunities that arise because of the crossing over between health and
HCI research in recent years. This will be a full one day workshop on
Saturday 18th April and will combine short oral presentations for the
accepted authors with posters, discussions and interactive sessions to
actively prepare a vision statement for HCI and Health research during the
workshop that can be shared with the rest of the CHI community.



*Submission Process*

Position papers should be 2-4 pages CHI ACM extended abstract format. These
can be case studies, short reports on recent work or reflections on
methodologies or approaches used. All contributions must highlight the
challenges and or opportunities that arise when working between health and
HCI research domains.  All papers will be peer reviewed by our committee
(minimum 2 reviewers per paper) and notified by email of their acceptance.
Selected participants will be invited to contribute towards an extended
journal paper in the Health Informatics Journal.

** *Extended Deadline* for participants to submit their position papers via
Easychair: no later than midnight (GMT) *January 12th, 2015*.
