Brian Fisher is Associate Professor of Interactive Arts and Technology and Cognitive Science at Simon Fraser University and the Associate Director of the Media and Graphics Interdisciplinary Centre (MAGIC) at the University of British Columbia. He is also a member of the SFU Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in the Mathematical and Computational Sciences, and the UBC Brain Research Centre and Institute for Computing, Intelligent and Cognitive Systems. His research focuses on the cognitive science of human interaction with visual information systems, with the goal of developing new theories, methods, and methodologies for development and evaluation of technology to support human understanding, decision-making, and coordination of operations. This work is supported by the US Department of Homeland Security Command, Control and Interoperability Center of Excellence for applications in disaster relief and anti-terrorism with matching funding from the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada and by the Boeing Company on understanding aircraft safety, reliability, and maintainability data with matching funding from the Mathematics of Information Technology and Complex Systems Network of Centres of Excellence (Canada). In addition to his SIAT courses Brian has taught in Business, Computer Science, Engineering, Kinesiology, and Psychology.
