Theophanis (Fanis) Tsandilas
[ e-mail: fanis at lri.fr, tel: ++33-169-153-241 ]
I am research scientist (Chargé de Recherche - CR2) at the In Situ lab at INRIA Saclay.
My research interests lie in the area of Human-Computer Interaction.
I have completed my Ph.D. at the DGP lab in the Department of Computer Science
at the University of Toronto.
My work focuses on the design and evaluation of novel interaction techniques, personalized user interfaces, interactive paper, and interfaces that support creativity.
Prior to my Ph.D., I earned a M.Sc. degree from the Department of Computer Science
at the University of Toronto. I finished my undergraduate degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens.
parfois, l'interaction entre les hommes et les machines devient assez brutale et pénible...
