Biography

I'm Dr Shaun Macdonald, a HCI Research Associate working in the Glasgow Interactive Systems Section in the University of Glasgow's School of Computing Science as Co-I on the AZRAM project.

I earned my PhD in Human Computer Interaction under the supervision from Professor Stephen Brewster and Professor Frank Pollick, investigating emotionally resonant vibrotactile comfort objects as a calming intervention for social anxiety.
