Jesper Kjeldskov, Dr. Scient., Ph.D. is Professor of Computer Science at Aalborg University in Denmark within the area of Human-Computer Interaction, and research leader in the newly established Research Centre for Socio+Interactive Design. Jespers research interests are Interaction Design and User Experience with particular focus on mobile and ubiquitous technologies primarily in non-work settings. Jesper has a cross-disciplinary background spanning the humanities, social sciences, and computer science. He has published more than 130 peer-reviewed journal and conference papers within the area of Human-Computer Interaction. In 2013 he was awarded the degree of Doctor of Science (higher doctorate) and subsequently promoted to Full Professor. Prior to his professorship at Aalborg, Jesper lived and worked for several years in Australia, working as a Research Fellow at The University of Melbourne, and as a Principal Research Scientist at CSIRO in Sydney. Since 2009 he has revisited his interests in mobile HCI and has extended his work on domestic computing with new projects within sustainability, digital media, mediated relationships, emerging display technologies, and social natural user interfaces. In his spare time Jesper loves food, wine, music, and having a laugh with his partner-in-crime, Jeni Paay. See less
