Mobile Life VINN Excellence Center. Henriette Cramer. I’m a research scientist at Yahoo! Labs’ Mobile Sensing and User Behavior group in Sunnyvale, California. On a very general level, I’m interested in how people perceive technologies and integrate them into their daily lives. My research revolves around mobile location-based services and people’s perceptions of their surroundings, ‘Research in the Large’: using wide distribution channels and existing services for research purposes, and people’s perceptions of applications and ‘things’ that use data around -or about- them to adapt and personalize themselves. My user studies combine quantitative and qualitative methods to understand both what is happening, and why; grasping the human-scale motivations behind the web-scale data.

Before I joined Yahoo! I have a PhD from the Human-Computer Studies lab at the University of Amsterdam (April 2010).
