Stephen Brewster
I am a Professor of Human-Computer Interaction in the School of Computing Science at the University of Glasgow. I am a member of the GIST research section and within that, I lead the Multimodal Interaction Group doing world-leading research in human-computer interaction (mig.dcs.gla.ac.uk). My research focuses on multimodal HCI, or using multiple sensory modalities and control mechanisms (particularly audio, haptics and gesture) to create a rich, natural interaction between human and computer. My work has a strong experimental focus, applying perceptual research to practical situations. I currently hold and ERC Advanced Grant on virtual and augmented reality (the ViAjeRo project). I also work on interfaces for mobile devices and in-car interactions.
I am a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, a member of the ACM SIGCHI Academy and an ACM Distinguished Speaker.
My profile on Google Scholar gives an updated list of publications.

Patrizia Di Campli San Vito
Dr. Patrizia Di Campli San Vito is a postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow. Her background is in Human Computer Interaction (HCI), where she has investigated the use of haptic modalities, such as thermal and electrotactile feedback, to provide information to users, and has worked on projects exploring the use of technology to support vulnerable population, such as people with dementia, and participatory auditing of AI applications. She has finished her PhD in Computing Science at the University of Glasgow in 2021, after obtaining both her BSc and MSc in Media Informatics at the University of Ulm, Germany. She was promoted to Research Fellow in 2025.
