Leif specializes in developing, evaluating and modelling information-rich and information-intensive applications and agents - and thus developing novel Recommender Systems and Information Retrieval Systems underpinned by Natural Language Processing, Language Modelling, Machine Learning and Deep Learning. His group focuses on understanding and modelling how information systems shape and influence people and society. Thus, at the heart of our research is the focus on modelling and predicting the interaction between people and systems.

Gobinda is a Professor of Information Science, focusing on digital libraries and information services, trying to understand how people access and use information and data in different contexts. Recent research includes information systems and services for addressing global challenges and sustainable development.

Mark’s research focuses on the usability of mobile systems, including mobile text entry, visualisation, sensor-driven interaction and evaluation of mobiles. He's increasingly interested in the use of mobiles to support wellbeing and health.

My research interests are in interactive information retrieval, collaborative information retrieval, multimodal interaction and human-computer interaction.

Perla’s research focus is on human information practices, particularly on how people create, search, and share information in naturalistic settings. Her empirical investigations traverse disciplinary boundaries, drawing on Cultural Heritage, Library and Information Science, Sociology, Informatics, Human Computer Interaction, Health. She is increasingly interested in the use of mobile technologies to support health and safety in hiking and pilgrimage routes.

Catherine's research is in Information Retrieval (IR), focusing on complex search contexts such as learning and creativity, as well as all aspects of IR for low-resource languages. Her research integrates both human and computational perspectives to investigate search systems, including the understanding of user interaction behaviour in specific contexts, and the development of datasets and computational techniques to enhance the search experience for users within those contexts.

Cassandra Kist undertakes research at the intersection between cultural heritage/memory practices and digital platforms to unpick how their entanglement has implications for processes of social inclusion and exclusion. This involves understanding the experiences of professionals and communities accessing and engaging with digital cultural heritage, drawing on techniques such as ethnography, user research, and co-creation.

Wendy carries out research into lived experiences in the Digital Age. Her research focuses on online identity, reputation, trust and cybersecurity. It traverses disciplinary boundaries, drawing on human-computer interaction, psychology, sociology, digital anthropology, and design.

Yashar works in using Data Science and in particular Information Retrieval, Big Data and Applied Machine Learning, his research is directed at addressing a critical and challenging data science task: to processing, analysing, and learning from the abundant streams of heterogeneous data about individuals and their environment gathered from recent technological advances such as MRI, EEG, Internet-enabled wearable devices, smartphones, social media and smart cities.

Emma’s main research interests are Information Behaviour and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Her experience of empirical investigations of information seeking and user interactions with technology encompasses studies in many human contexts and occupational domains including Education, Healthcare, Law, FinTech and Cultural Heritage.

Dmitri has contributed to the fields of information systems, information retrieval, natural language processing, search engines, security informatics, medical informatics, human-computer interaction, databases and others.

Ian’s focus is on the human experience of interacting with information, particularly on how people find information. This involves understanding how people seek information, designing appropriate interactive search systems, and developing human-focused approaches for evaluating information systems.

My main research interest is exploring innovation diffusion processes within the cultural and scientific heritage sectors. Within this domain, I contributed to EC-commissioned technology watch reports and coordinated research exploring user needs and behaviours within the digital heritage domain. I am also interested in media and information literacy and the societal impacts of misinformation/disinformation.
