Research summary
AI-generated

Laura G. Militello studies how people make decisions and use technology in high-stakes settings such as healthcare, aviation, and other safety-critical industries. Her work applies cognitive task analysis (methods for understanding how experts think and make judgments) to design better training, safety protocols, and human-AI collaboration systems. Recent projects include studying pilot decision-making during emergencies, designing AI systems that work as teammates rather than just tools, and using machine learning to reduce medication overdoses in primary care.
