Lab receives two NSF i-Corps mini Grants

The Social Interaction Lab received two i-Corps mini grants this spring! The iCorps grants are sponsored by the National Science Foundation. With Professor Yvette Wohn as the faculty mentor, Adam Spryzinski received a grant for a Mood App that uses color and multi-input methods- Basma Abukwaik was also on this team. Indraneel Kulkarni received a grant for the Virtual Sisters app, a social support system for women in STEM/computing. The i-Corps mini grants will be used to conduct user studies and meet with users for further commercialization of these applications. The photos below show Adam and Indraneel presenting their idea to the judges and other grant recipients.
