Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) - Guest Myriam Lewkowicz

Host Casandra Grundstrom is joined by special guest  Professor Myriam Lewkowicz. Myriam works at Troyes University of Technology where she heads the pluri-disciplinary research group Tech-CICO. She is interested in defining digital technologies to support existing collective practices or to design new collective activities. This interdisciplinary research proposes reflections and approaches for the analysis and the design of new products and services to support cooperative work. The main application domains for this research for the last fifteen years have been healthcare (social support, coordination, telemedicine) and the industry (digital transformation, maintenance). She is a member of the program committees of the main conferences in Cooperative Work, Social Software, and Human-Machine Interaction, chairs the European scientific association EUSSET, and is deputy editor-in-chief of the CSCW journal "The Journal of Collaborative Computing and Work Practices".In this episode we are inspired by the upcoming ECSCW conference hosted by NTNU in Trondheim this year (2023) from June 5th-9th and thus we examine the historical movements that were formative for the conference and the field. Myriam shares with us her wealth of knowledge and lived-experience in CSCW, with a special emphasis on the community and the orientation towards practice and design.  Consider submitting a workshop proposal, journal paper, poster and more to this welcoming community: deadline is February 20th, 2023.
