1 HUGO NICOLAU BIOGRAPHY Hugo Nicolau is a Post-doctoral Researcher at the University of Lisbon, Portugal. His research interests include humancomputer interaction, accessibility, wearables, and mobile interfaces, focusing on the design, development, and evaluation of novel interaction techniques for people with disabilities, either induced by context or health factors. Hugo s goals comprise creating useful and usable technologies that improve people s access to information, products, and services by leveraging individual abilities within context. His work has been published in over 25 peer-reviewed scientific publications in many top venues, including ACM CHI, MobileHCI, ASSETS, INTERACT, UIST, UAIS, and IEEE Multimedia, from which he received three best paper awards (CHI 14, ASSETS 11, INTERACT 11). He has previously served as conference chair, organizing member, and program committee member on several international conferences and workshops in his field. He currently serves as newsletter editor for the Special Interest Group on Accessible Computing. He received his PhD in Information Systems and Computer Engineering from the Technical University of Lisbon in EDUCATION [Ph.D.] Information Systems and Computer Engineering, Technical University of Lisbon ( ) Disabled R All Bridging the gap between Health- and Situationally-Induced Impairments and Disabilities Advisor: Joaquim Jorge Committee: Vicki Hanson, Luís Carriço, João Brisson [M.Sc.] Information Systems and Computer Engineering, IST - Technical University of Lisbon ( ) Blobby: Mobile Guide for the Blind Advisor: Joaquim Jorge [B.Sc.] Information Systems and Computer Engineering, IST - Technical University of Lisbon ( ) RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCE [Post-Doctoral Researcher] University of Lisbon, July 2015 current date [Post-Doctoral Research Scientist] Rochester Institute of Technology, June 2014 May 2015 [Post-Doctoral Research Assistant] University of Dundee, SiDE Project, May 2013 April 2014 [Research Assistant] INESC-ID, PaeLife AAL European Project, February 2012 February 2013 [Research Assistant] INESC-ID, SATIN European Project, November 2007 May 2008 PUBLICATIONS REFEREED JOURNAL ARTICLES [J.4] Hugo Nicolau, Tiago Guerreiro, Joaquim Jorge, and Daniel Gonçalves.
