Our team's recent work in the WellthLab [wellthlab.ac.uk] is looking at how to help virtual teams work better by seeing how we can bring more of our physiology into the frame [https://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/news/6676]. We have a study running right now - if you'd like to help test out some new ideas - please join us [https://www.wellthlab.ac.uk/physiology-of-teams-onboard/]

Research Focus:
How do we design interactive technology to help #makeNormalBetter for all @scale.
and
how do design interactive technology to help people get off interactive technology - to help build the knowledge, skills and practice to be resilient ourselves, and to build reslient life afirming structures from culture to infrastructure.

If that sounds fun, please reach out
and if you're not quite ready to connect - please take a look at these articles on that research focus, called Inbodied Interaction, here.
