Biography

Julia was a full time lecturer in the Centre for HCI Design from January 1999 until December 2008 and has continued to work for HCID on a part time basis as a researcher. In 2009, she worked on the NHS Connecting for Health Safer Handover project and in August 2010, she began working the EPSRC GReAT project, a collaboration between the Centre for HCI Design, the Department of Language and Communication Science (City University) and the Stroke Association. She has a PhD in Artificial Intelligence from the Open University, an MSc in Cognition, Computing and Psychology from Warwick University, and a BSc Hons in Zoology from Nottingham University. Her research interests include safety-critical user interface design and new technologies, particularly within healthcare. Her background is in cooperative interaction, belief revision and dialogue modelling. Julia was Principal Investigator on the ESRC/EPSRC/DTI funded ACE project and co-investigator on the EPSRC funded GHandI project.
