Dr. Williams is an organizational and health workforce researcher who looks for ways to improve care delivery using clinical information systems. He focuses on human-computer interaction and socio-technical theory to improve meaningful use of these systems. His goal is to impact hospitalization outcomes for patients with chronic diseases. He is a former primary investigator to an NCATS-funded KL2 and a current primary investigator to an NINR-funded R21. His interests include cognitive load techniques, task analysis, social network analysis, psychometrics in clinical tool design and use, and large-scale data cleaning.
