Dr. Dana McKay is associate dean, interaction, technology and information at RMIT's School of Computing Technologies. Dana's primary interest is in ensuring that advances in information technology make the world fairer and more equitable. To do this she focuses on how people interact with information, and how technology shapes that interaction. Recent projects include studying the role of technology in family violence (and how to prevent it), how online information affects people’s views, and how to improve browsing tools so you can finally find something good to watch on Netflix. Before completing her PhD in 2019 Dana spent 10 years working as a UX professional.
