How their research is transforming health care
Eileen’s research focuses on the intersection of humans and technology, with two major thrusts: human aspects of software development (CS education and software engineering) and human aspects of bioinformatics (design of tools and user interfaces for bioinformatics). The work on human aspects of bioinformatics has focused on the effective design of user interfaces and tools for bioinformatics, with applications to EuPathDB , a web-based database covering the eukaryotic pathogens in the genera Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Leishmania, Neospora, Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Trichomonas and Trypanosoma.
