Biography

I am interested in improving human interaction with computer systems through empirical investigations of how computers are used and through explorations of innovative user interfaces. In 2015 I was awarded an ERC Consolidator grant to work on body-based user interfaces.

I received my M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Copenhagen in 1998 and 2002, respectively. Since 2014, I have been a professor at University of Copenhagen. My core research interests are human-computer interaction, usability research, and body-based interactions; detours include eye tracking, cultural usability, and reality-based interfaces. In addition, I serve on the editorial board of ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction. I have published at CHI, UIST, ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, and Human-Computer Interaction, and won IJHCS’s most cited paper award 2006-2008.

In 2023, I published my paper Implications of Human-Computer Interaction Research.
