Young parents are turning to TikTok for health guidance for their children. This talk analyzes the platform’s moderation and design choices, from automated moderation of misinformation to the design of search result pages. We examine the impact of these choices on the spread of misinformation and recommend interventions to respond.

I’m a gendercreative, fun and funky art director and product designer working with brands and nonprofits to do no harm, create cool things, and make the world a better place. I've spent the past four years as an art director working in health communications, making health education more approachable. Now, as a product designer, I'm taking my storytelling and design chops to the big world wide web (and the app store)! In my free time, you can find me at art exhibits, collaborating with other creatives on shenanigans, and trying out every single coffee shop in New York City.
