I have been invited to be co-chair of the posters track for the upcoming British Computing Society: HCI Conference 2025 which will take place in Cardiff University in Wales, UK.

Fully funded doctoral student (PhD): I am hiring a highly motivated person for a fully funded PhD position to work in the development of socio-technical interventions with and for Armed Forces Veterans (AFV). The key intersecting areas in the project will be stigma, trust, and use of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) methodologies and approaches as well…

I will be part of the Program Committee serving as Associate Chair (AC) for next year’s ACM Conference on Designing Interactive Systems (DIS’25).

I presented my research as well as organized with a group of awesome colleagues a workshop on human-centred co-design methods during the India Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) 2024 conference in Mumbai!

I had a great time giving a research talk and forging potential future collaborations in the Open Lab research group at Newcastle University.

I’m so excited that both out MASI Basecamp 2024 proposals to co-design tech with vulnerable groups have been accepted for funding!

Thanks to the Swansea Academy of Inclusivity and Swansea Academy of Learning and Teaching (SALT) for the invitation to contribute to the revised PSF 2023: Demonstrating Inclusive Practices post on inclusive practices in teaching!

I will be part of the Program Committee serving as Associate Chair (AC) for next year’s ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI’25) and the CM SIGCHI Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work & Social Computing (CSCW’25).

We had a great time during the workshop “Conducting Interdisciplinary Research with Vulnerable Populations in Computing: Challenges, Practices, and Lessons Learned” that took place both online and in-person in Rimini, Italy as a pre-conference event as part of the 22nd European Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (ECSCW’24 Conference).

I have received a Faculty of Science and Engineering (FSE) Impact Fund to help me network with community leaders and stakeholders for research involving the Armed Forces & Veterans.
