Stephen Fairclough is a Professor of Psychophysiology in the School of Natural Sciences and Psychology. He began his career at Loughborough University working on human factors psychology, with a particular emphasis on psychophysiological measures and driving behaviour. He joined Liverpool John Moores University in 2000 and extended his range of skills to cover cardiovascular physiology and measurement of brain activity (EEG and fNIRS).

His research has been funded by a range of bodies, including: the European Commission, EPSRC, the Health & Safety Executive, the BIAL Foundation, Innovate UK and private organisations (Muller, Volvo). He has worked extensively in collaborations between academia and industry.

He has a long-standing track record of research in the area of emerging technologies and human-computer interaction. His 2009 paper on physiological computing was the most cited paper in the journal Interacting With Computers in 2011-12 and 2012-13. In 2014, he was asked to write an article for Nature on data privacy and physiological measurement.

He has co-edited two books in the last two years, both on the topic of physiological computing and published by Springer. He was elected as President of Psychophysiology In Ergonomics (a group aligned to the International Ergonomics Association) and served from 2007-2010. He is a program co-chair for the International Conference on Physiological Computing Systems.

He has been a member of the programme committee for ACM Annual Conference on Computer-Human Interaction (CHI) and the bi-annual conference Affective Computing & Intelligent Interaction. He is currently a member of the editorial boards for the journals IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing and International Journal of Cognitive Performance Support. He has been elected to serve on the Executive of the European Chapter of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society.
