The Focus on Users seminars are a series of workshops focusing on how key audiences use technology to learn and make decisions about health.

The nine-session series will start in June of 2008 and last until October of 2010, and will feature workshops on:

• kids,
• adolescents,
• moms,
• older adults,
• physicians,
• public health professionals,
• international users,
• disabled users, and
• underserved populations.

In each session we will:

• review demographic data;
• identify trends in technology use, preferences, and user behavior;
• review audience-specific evidence about technology and positive health change; and
• establish strategies to use technology more effectively with target CDC audiences.

These sessions are open to both CDC staff and public health partners.
