Description: This interactive session will present an introduction to user experience design (UXD) & user experience research (UXR) and to key topics in these fields. We will discuss how team science practitioners and researchers can integrate UXR and UXD both into their work and into growing their own web presence. Finally, I will also touch on my own UX career path and offer ways that UX is an exciting career option for members of the Intereach community. Throughout the session, participants will have the opportunity to reflect on, practice, and discuss different aspects of UX.
