After almost 4 years, Susan Vukovic, our amazing Project Officer, is leaving at the end of June. She’s been key to shaping the HumaniSE Lab’s identity, events, and impact. We'll miss her deeply and wish her all the best in her next chapter! 💙

Think #empathy and #softwareengineering don’t mix? 💙 PhD candidate @_HashiniG from our @HumaniseL is proving that empathy shapes better products and more effective dev teams. Now she's building tools to make it part of every developer’s toolkit: bit.ly/3Sdb9On
