Dr Sarah Wiseman
Sarah’s focusses on human computer interaction, specifically the design of data entry interfaces in hospitals.
Staff details
Sarah is a Lecturer in the Department of Computing. Her research focuses on Human Computer Interaction. Topics of interest include: the design of number and data entry interfaces particularly in the hospital, citizen science recruitment within HCI and the design of haptic technologies for use in cultural settings with a focus on users with visual impairments.
Sarah is also involved in public engagement and science communication work, which includes performing stand up comedy about her research, as well as giving talks at the Royal Institution and Science Museum.
