Digital Wellbeing

Our Mission

The Digital Wellbeing Research Group acts at the intersection between digital technologies and human wellbeing. We work across disciplines, collaborating with clinical specialists, social scientists, and technical experts to tackle issues that affect the most vulnerable sectors of society. We develop our own tools, such as sensor-embedded, context-rich eye-tracking, to better understand large scale issues in physical and mental health.

Our goal is to contribute evidence-based, socially and technologically innovative concepts and solutions, and to inform policy on a regional and wider EU level.
