OpenDP Creator web application
I led user experience research and design through launch for a web application that helps researchers share sensitive data by adding “noise” to selected summary statistics using differential privacy. The OpenDP Creator application is part of the Privacy Tools Initiative funded by the Sloan foundation.
The team conducted several rounds of user research on prototypes of the application, with each round informing the next.
Our paper outlining prototype testing is Don’t Look at the Data! How Differential Privacy Reconfigures the Practices of Data Science, by Jayshree Sarathy with Sophia Song, Audrey Haque, Tania Schlatter and Salil Vadhan, to appear in ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2023.
