This is a critical question given that the majority of health informatics research thus far has focused on relatively socio-economically advantaged groups. To address this gap, I will present results from a series of community-based studies with populations that experience health disparities related to HIV\/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), as well as diabetes and hypertension. Drawing from the results of these studies, I will present new conceptual frameworks that highlight community-level mediators\/facilitators of health information access and use which may be amenable to intervention. These potential intervention targets include: 1) information networks and institutional capacity; 2) community involvement-based mediators of information use; 3) collective trust; and 4) patient work systems that emerge within disadvantaged community contexts. These findings provide a basis for future research focused on a novel area of health informatics practice: community-level interventions that address health disparities by intervening at the community (or &ldquo;meso&rdquo;) level of social organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please join MUII and the MU Student Chapter of ASIS&amp;T for a talk given by Dr. Tiffany Veinot (University of Michigan)&middot;&nbsp;&nbsp; When:&nbsp;Monday April 27, 12:00-1:00 Where:&nbsp;Memorial Union N222\/223&nbsp; Talk Title:&nbsp;How &ldquo;Community&rdquo; Matters for Health Informatics: Conceptualizing&nbsp;Informatics Interventions for Health Disparity<span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/2015\/04\/24\/mu-informatics-institute-association-for-information-science-and-technology-speaker-series\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">MU Informatics Institute &amp; Association for Information Science and Technology Speaker Series<\/span><span class=\"meta-nav\"> &#8250;<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- end of .read-more --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8757","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-05-10 17:29:12","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8757","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/32"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8757"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8757\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8758,"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8757\/revisions\/8758"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8757"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8757"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.missouri.edu\/newsnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8757"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
