News: I am relocating to British Columbia and will launch a lab at the UBC (Okanagan campus). Students interested in joining me at UBCO can send me an email with a copy of your transcript(s), a CV and a brief statement of interest.

I am a Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Manitoba and Canada Research Chair in Ubiquitous Analytics. My research lies broadly in the areas of Human-Computer Interaction and Information Visualization. More specifically, our team is concentrating on designing and studying novel interactive systems for sensemaking "anywhere" and "anytime". For advancing this work we rely on mixed reality (MR) and wearable technologies for developing novel prototypes of visual interfaces and devices. I am also the Principal Invesitigator on an NSERC CREATE grant on Visual and Automated Disease Analytics. The aim of the VADA program is to train the next generation data scientists with a focus on health data analytics.
