His research interest lies in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), at the intersection of Mixed Reality, Bodily Interfaces, Sensing Technologies, and Computational Interaction. He aims to focus his Ph.D. studies on understanding the relationship between human bodies and the digital environment, and concurrently creating new interactive systems that augment a wide range of perceptions via computational interaction methods, which he believes are crucial for the successful Integration or even the Fusion of Human-Computer Interaction.
Whilst at Leverhulme CFI, he will be part of the Designing for Wellbeing research programme.
