The 7th LASIGE Workshop was held on April 19, 2022. The event included an award ceremony in which LASIGE researchers were distinguished for their research output for the previous year. The two best posters presented in the workshop were also awarded and… the winners were:

Best Outreach Initiative (recognizes high impact research, both from a societal and an economic perspective)
1st prize: André Rodrigues, for the impact of the research he carried out with Wildkey, an open-source keyboard toolkit developed to support in-the-wild studies.

Best Early Career Researcher (recognizes the achievements of junior LASIGE PhD researchers)
Diogo Poças

Best PhD Student (recognizes the achievements of LASIGE PhD’s students)
Márcia Barros
