Fernando Loizides

I am a Senior Lecturer (assistant professor) in Computer Science and Informatics at Cardiff University, UK. I also hold an honorary Professorship at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid and a visiting Fellowship at the Cyprus University of Technology.

My main area of research lies in Information Interaction, Accessibility, User Experience, HCI, and Data Science. I have extensive experience in user study design and facilitation
using cutting-edge technologies, eliciting user requirements and performing systems evaluation, both within industry and academia.

I also have applied development experience, with one of my mobile applications winning the digital championship social impact award and several other applications I managed being commercialised. Some of the entities I collaborate with or worked for on projects include the European Patent Office, Microsoft, Nokia, Department for Education UK, Cyprus Broadcasting Channel and the Federal Department of Antiquities. Specifically to CUDL, I focus on the technology interaction between humans and all sorts of digital
tools including accessibility.
