A New Way in Healthcare.
Today, many people receive health information that doesn't fit their learning style or have the emotional elements to initiate healthy change. At the Health Design Lab we are designing health experiences that are not just evidence-based but also incorporate principles often ignored by medicine - making resources findable, useable, accessible and beautiful. We see a future where the right information comes at the right time, in the right place and in the right format.
No White Lab Coats.
The Health Design Lab is a place for research and discovery, but you won’t see any test tubes or lab coats here. Instead you will find film makers, designers, digital media experts, usability advocates, patients, writers, healthcare professionals and researchers who want to improve the health of their patients.
We’re Connected.
The Health Design Lab is based at the Li Ka Shing Knowledge Institute of St. Michael’s Hospital, an institution driven by a commitment to get cutting edge treatment from the research bench to a patient faster. That means we have research horsepower and access to real patients, connecting us to many health practice improvement initiatives such as the Family Practice of the Future.
