Author: Joseph L. Gabbard

Ph.D

Dr. Joseph L. Gabbard, is an Assistant Research Professor at Virginia Tech. He holds B.S. (1995) M.S. (1997) and Ph.D. (2008) degrees in computer science from Virginia Tech. He
also holds a B.A. in Sociology (1993) from Virginia Tech. Dr. Gabbard's work centers on human-computer interaction; specifically usability engineering for novel user interfaces including (but not limited to), augmented reality, virtual environments, visualizations for life sciences, and
multimodal interactive systems. Gabbard has been a pioneer in usability engineering with respect to applying to, and creating methods for, new interactive systems for more than 14 years. Currently, Dr. Gabbard is conducting a series of human-subjects experiments to better understand color perception in outdoor augmented reality. He also is applying formative usability evaluation methods to bioinformatics visualizations. His research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the Naval Research Laboratory, and the Office of
Naval Research.
