The SICSA-HCI All Hands will take place on Tuesday 12 December at Edinburgh Napier University.

The meeting is one of the most important events in our calendar.

If you would like to present the work of your research group or laboratory please contact the organizer, David Benyon directly on d.benyon@napier.ac.uk. There is a slot for lab overviews in the programme, or you can display a poster in the meeting room.
