Started in 2022, VME4CHI is a multi-disciplinary HCI research community at the University of Vaasa. We welcome students, doctoral students, and researchers from all fields working with topics related to HCI to join us for presentations and discussion. The group offers the possibility to present your work and discuss current research in the field. We gather every other month at VME Interaction Design Environment (TF4105 at Technobothnia) and online (request Zoom link from the organizers).
On Tue 9.12. at 9:00-10:00, Çağlar Genç from Tampere University will present their recent study ”Exploring Roles and Purposes in More-than-Human Design through a Reflexive Design Studio Experiment”.
We will have our next VME4CHI in spring 2026.

We wish you a warm welcome!
