Author Information

Max L. Wilson is a Lecturer in HCI and Information Seeking, in the Future Interaction Technology Lab at Swansea University, UK. His research focuses on Search User Interface design, taking a multidisciplinary perspective from both Human-Computer Interaction (the presentation and interaction) and Information Science (the information and seeking behaviours). His doctoral work, which won the best JASIST article in 2009, focused on evaluating Search User Interfaces using models of Information Seeking. Max received his PhD from Southampton University, under the supervision of M.C. Schraefel and Dame Wendy Hall, where much of his work was grounded in supporting Exploratory Search, and within the developing context of Web Science. Max mainly publishes in HCI and Information Science communities,including a monograph with co-authors Schraefel, Kules, and Shneiderman on future Search User Interfaces for the Web, and book chapters on Search User Interface design and Casual-Leisure Information Behaviour. Given the social evolution of the Web, and his interest in Web Science, some of Max's more recent work has focused on how people use social media, especially microblogging, as an information source. Max's research has been published at ACM CHI, ACM UIST, AAAI Conferenceon Weblogs and Social media, ACM JCDL, and Hypertext, and in journals including JASIST and Information Processing & Management. Max reviews for several journals and conferences, and has been on the organising committee for CHI2010, CHI2011, IliX2010, IliX2012, and ICWSM2012. Max is also leading the RepliCHI project, focusing on how the CHI community currently manages the replicability of HCI research. Finally, Max co-chairs the euroHCIR workshops aimed at stimulating the European communities interested in Human-Computer Interaction and Information Retrieval.
