About
Leonor Fermoselle Silva Pereira is a visionary researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction, virtual reality, and telepresence. Her work fundamentally reimagines how technology can extend human presence, moving beyond traditional notions of "being there" to explore what she terms the transportation of one's *functional and social self*. In her highly influential 2022 paper, "What Comes After Telepresence?," Pereira synthesizes advances in robotics and multisensory displays to propose a future where users not only feel present in a remote location but can also fully embody and socially interact within that space. This seminal work, already garnering 20 citations, challenges the field to consider deeper, more holistic forms of mediated connection. By bridging embodiment theory with practical system design, Pereira is charting a new frontier for how we work, socialize, and collaborate across distances. Her research is essential reading for anyone interested in the next generation of immersive technologies and the profound implications of transporting our very sense of self.
