Geke is professor and head of the Interaction Design group at the University of Twente. She is fellow of the UT DesignLab and connected to the TechMed Centre. Geke is a design researcher and expert on design for behaviour change and engagement. Central to her work is the question how (interaction) design influences human-technology relations and behaviour. She studies this question in the increasingly important context of following technology supported therapy at home and using technology to self-manage health and disease (more information). She has contributed to over 100 peer-reviewed publications in the design and human computer interaction domain as well as in the health domain.
