Yvonne Rogers is the director of the Interaction Centre at UCL and a professor of Interaction Design. She is internationally renowned for her work in HCI and ubiquitous computing. She is also a visiting professor at the Open University, Indiana University, and Sussex University and has spent sabbaticals at Stanford, Apple, Queensland University, UCSD, and University of Cape Town. Her research focuses on augmenting and extending everyday learning and work activities with a diversity of novel technologies. She was one of the principal investigators on the UK Equator Project (2000-2007) where she pioneered ubiquitous learning. She has published widely, beginning with her Ph.D. work on graphical interfaces to her recent work on public visualizations and behavioral change. She has also been awarded a prestigious EPSRC dream fellowship where she is rethinking the relationship between aging, computing, and creativity. Central to her work is a critical stance towards how visions, theories, andframe works can shape the fields of HCI, cognitive science, and Ubicomp. She has been instrumental in promulgating new theories (e.g., external cognition), alternative methodologies (e.g., in-the-wild studies), and far-reaching research agendas (e.g., Being Human: HCI in 2020 manifesto). She is also a co-author of the definitive textbook on Interaction Design and HCI now in its 3rd edition that has sold over 150,000 copies worldwide. She is a Fellow of the British Computer Society and the ACMs CHI Academy.
