Human Act Informatics is motivated by the belief that humans have the capacity to imagine, design, and create new possibilities. A central focus of our work is developing new ways to conceptualize and measure human acts. We design measurement approaches that record how human actions unfold inside complex social and health systems, particularly in cases where available models do not account for systemic forces and downstream effects.
Working across social and philosophical sciences, computer science, biology, and informatics, we develop interdisciplinary frameworks and measurement models that make these dimensions visible and analytically understandable.
