Text for mission statement #82

Closed Jamjarman closed 8 years ago

Jamjarman commented 8 years ago

Currently the mission statement on the landing page is just "A 2-4 sentence statement about our research agenda or something." We should probably put some actual content here before we go to production.

I'm not sure if there is a statement written out somewhere but it will be very easy to drop in if someone writes one down.

How about this:

The Makeability Lab is a research lablet within the Human-Computer Interaction Lab (HCIL)—one of the oldest and most well-known HCI labs in the world—at the University of Maryland. Founded in 2012 by Dr. Jon Froehlich and students, the Makeability Lab focuses on designing and studying novel interactive experiences that cross between bits and atoms—the virtual and the physical—and back again to confront some of the world's greatest challenges in environmental sustainability, health and wellness, education, and universal accessibility.
