At Stanford's Virtual Human
Interaction Lab, I work with Jeremy Bailenson in using
immersive virtual reality (VR) as a platform for conducting
experiments in social interaction and self-representation.
In particular, we are interested in exploring how to break
the rules of physical social interaction to enhance interactions
in virtual environments.
