Harvard Sensor Networks Lab

Alex Wissner-Gross has joined the HSNL as a postdoctoral reseacher, supported by a two-year fellowship from the Harvard University Center for the Environment. Alex is a condensed matter physicist with interests concerning the science and technology of programmable media, with a recent focus on the intersection of computation, energy, and the environment. Alex received his Ph.D. in Physics in 2007 from Harvard University for his work on programmable surfaces. His research will involve developing a framework for instrumenting computers and other network-capable devices with enough intelligence to monitor and manage their own environmental footprints.
