This paper discusses the interrelationship between e-Science and CSCW in terms of key
substantive, methodological and conceptual innovations made in both fields. In so doing, we …

In recent years, extensive research in the HCI literature has explored interactive techniques
for digital fabrication. However, little attention in this body of work has examined how to …

Biomedical research is a prominent case of knowledge work, often driven by data and
information. A major limiting factor in biomedical research is access to information when and …

We present the Smart Makerspace; a context-rich, immersive instructional workspace for
novice and intermediate makers. The Smart Makerspace guides makers through the …

Wet Laboratories are highly dynamic, shared environments full of tubes, racks, compounds,
and dedicated machinery. The recording of experiments, despite the fact that several …

Optimization of a circuit by transistor sizing is often a slow, tedious and iterative manual
process which relies on designer intuition. Circuit simulation is carried out in the inner loop …

Reality-based interfaces (RBIs) such as tabletop and tangible user interfaces draw upon
ideas from embodied cognition to offer a more natural, intuitive, and accessible form of …

We present Active Pathways, an active tangible and tabletop system that aims to support
collaborative discovery and learning in biochemical modeling. Our work extends ideas from …

DIYbio challenges the status quo by positioning laboratory biology work outside of
traditional institutions. HCI has increasingly explored the DIYbio movement, but we lack …

We investigate how to design community technologies for public events. We do so with a
focus on technologies that give rise to new forms of participation and knowledge co …
