Given our interdisciplinary backgrounds we publish in diverse places. Some of the papers below predate CMH@UCD, but they give a good sense of our work.
Computer scientists and designers like to do things differently. Unusually, conference papers in Computer Science carry greater prestige than journal papers. (It’s a long story!) When our work is computational or design focused we tend to publish in Computer Science conferences. When our work is more health focused we publish in journals. Many of the papers below are published in the ACM Conference in Computer Human Interaction (ACM CHI). ACM CHI is amongst the most prestigious venues for Computer Science publications.
