Prof Janet van der Linden
Professor of Interaction Design
I conduct research into interaction design, where my work work focuses on new forms of interfaces and how to bring together tangible, technological and social aspects of designs. My research takes an in-the-wild approach, with ethnographically inspired research methods and has been internationally recognised for its innovation with special awards at ACM conferences CHI (2014), Ubicomp (2011, 2012, 2014) and Creativity and Cognition (2015).
