Yasmeen Abdrabou, PhD

I am a Postdoctoral researcher and team leader at TU Munich hired on the VIVA project. Previously, I was a Senior Research Associate at Lancaster University. I joined Hans Gellersen's Team  working on gaze and head coordination in VR as part of the Gemini ERC Grant

I finished my Ph.D. at the University of the Bundeswehr Munich in March 2023. I was supervised by Prof. Dr. Florian Alt and Dr. Mohamed Khamis. My research combines HCI and usable security. In particular, I focus on the use of eye gaze to enhance security mechanisms, including and not limited to gaze behavior in security-related situations and personal identification.  My PhD is funded by the Studienstiftung des deutschen volkes
