Research Overview

Research interests include human-computer interaction, with a specific focus on designing and evaluating technologies for wellbeing, mental health, memory support, creative and reflective thinking in design, as well as novel tools for designing such technologies. My work explores and integrates wearable bio sensors, mobile and lifelogging technologies.

My research was supported by grants totalling over ?15.1 million, and I was Coordinator of two prestigious EC-funded Innovative Training Networks. I have spent sabbaticals as Visiting Professor at Stanford University, Carnegie Mellon University, Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), University of California Irvine, and University of California Santa Cruz.

My research received extensive media coverage as well as 5 Best Paper and Honourable Mention Awards at flagship ACM CHI and DIS conferences. I have also received the AI 2000 Most Influential Scholar Honorable Mention in Human-Computer Interaction (2022), Digital Female Leader Award for Science (2019) from Global Digital Women, 51¸£Àû Outstanding Contribution Staff Award (2019), and Highly Commended Nomination for Researcher of the Year Dean’s Award (2019).

In 2022 I was made Principal Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (PFHEA) for strategic international leadership of interdisciplinary large scale doctoral training programmes.

I am interested in supervising PhD projects in HCI and digital health. I have supervised to completion 15 PhD students, and in 2021 I was shortlisted by the UK Times Higher Education for the Outstanding Research Supervisor of the Year Award.
