A+CHIS at the Long Night of Research 2024
Together with our colleagues from the Graz University of Technology and the Medical University of Graz, the Cognitive Science Section team at the Graz University managed an interactive booth at the Long Night of Research 2024 in Graz on May 24th (https://langenachtderforschung.at/). Numerous visitors had the opportunity to try out the current version of the A+CHIS-prototype, experiencing research firsthand during its development and evaluation phases. At the same time, their interest and valuable feedback made a significant contribution towards creating a user-oriented and easily accessible consumer health information system.
