    Recorded on Thursday, October 26th, 2023 at the HFES 67th International Annual Meeting

    This expert panel is the second of a two-panel series marking the 40th anniversary of “Cognitive Systems Engineering: New Wine in New Bottles” by Hollnagel and Woods (1983) and, arguably, the beginning of Cognitive Systems Engineering (CSE). These experts were there at (or near) the beginning. They wrestled with the daunting issues of how to apply new CSE findings, many of which they discovered, into workable solutions that actually improved systems performance in high-uncertainty, high-stakes settings. Their work has been implemented in a number of fields, including aviation, healthcare, power generation, and defense. They will each answer the question, “What ideas and perspectives are important about Cognitive Systems Engineering, and why?”

    This expert panel is the first of a two-panel series marking the 40th anniversary of “Cognitive Systems Engineering: New Wine in New Bottles” by Hollnagel and Woods (1983) and, arguably, the beginning of Cognitive Systems Engineering (CSE). These experts were there at (or near) the beginning, devising new methods, expanding and creating new theories, and revealing a new perspective on how complex systems sustain performance and fail. They also wrestled and struggled with these new ideas to propose and implement solutions to improve performance in a number of high-consequence industries. Whether in graduate school or as early-career professionals, they saw the surprises that served as signals that the thinking that brought us to that point would not, alone, be the thinking and doing that would take us further. They will each answer the question, “What ideas and perspectives are important about Cognitive Systems Engineering, and why?”

    Dr. Claire Gordon joined the US Army civilian workforce in 1983 as a research anthropologist and retired 30 years later as the US Army Senior Research Scientist in Biological Anthropology. During her illustrious career, Dr. Gordon designed and led the execution of the 1988 and 2012 US Army anthropometric surveys and innovated sampling and analytical methodologies which are now the gold standard for anthropometric surveys. Her work on uniforms, body armor systems, vehicle design, and workstations focused on the physical accommodation of all Soldiers. This Discussion Panel gathers experts who worked directly with Dr. Gordon or were directly influenced by her work. They will discuss Dr. Gordon’s impact on the field of anthropometry, her legacy championing minority accommodation, and the lessons she taught as a mentor to the next generation of anthropologists. The facilitated discussion will include an open dialogue and audience participation.

    This webinar is organized by the Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) Affinity Group to discuss DEI within HFES and beyond. There is lots of effort towards establishing and maintaining Diversity, Equity and Inclusions (DEI) programs within companies and institutions. But how do these approaches coalesce into organizational “inclusive excellence”? This 90 minute webinar will consist of short presentations from each of our speakers followed by a panel discussion. During this webinar, the need for a science-based approach to DEI will discussed. Additionally, there will be discussion around the difficulties of DEI efforts in our current political landscape and how do we move forward Our distinguished speakers and panelists are: • Dr. Rod Roscoe, Associate Professor, from the Arizona State University, Human Systems Engineering, The Polytechnic School • Dr. Renaldo C.

    Have you ever thought about where to go to improve your ergonomics knowledge or skills? Is there ergo information you’re seeking but can’t find a resource to provide it? At HFES and AES, we are here to share information from our experts and help you sharpen those skills. In this session, you will learn about three university-based continuing education training programs. Representatives from Auburn University, Colorado State University, University of California, San Francisco, and University of California, Berkeley will share information about their programs (material, objectives, target audience, format, etc.). You will have an opportunity to ask questions and join in a discussion of the benefits and training needs of those who apply ergonomics in the workplaces.
