Susan Dybbs is an interaction designer at Cooper where her innovative designs start from interpreting human behavior. Much of her work has focused on the challenges facing the healthcare industry -- from clinical services to medical devices. Susan's research methods range from formal ethnographic studies to guerilla-style discovery. Susan holds a Master's of Design from Carnegie Mellon University and was a member of IxDA's Interaction 11 conference planning committee.

She has worked with a wide variety of organizations, such as Blue Cross Blue Shield, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, El Camino Hospital,Teleflex, Microsoft, Thomson Reuters and Hitachi. When not obsessing over counterpulsation devices and brain surgery, she can be found letterpress printing and riding through the hills of the Marin Headlands.
