Sommario/riassunto

The three-volume set CCIS 2771-2773 constitutes the proceedings of



the 27th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2025, held in Gothenburg, Sweden, during June 22–27, 2025. A total of 7972 individuals from academia, research institutes, industry, and government agencies from 92 countries submitted contributions. 1430 papers and 355 posters (as short research papers) were included in the volumes of the proceedings published just before the start of the conference. Additionally, 439 papers and 104 posters were included in the volumes of the proceedings published after the conference, as “Late Breaking Work”. The papers were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Games, Learning, and Location-Based Technologies; Digital Innovation in Cultural Heritage; Health, Wellbeing, and Assistive Technologies Part II: Smart Mobility and Transportation; AI-Powered and Decision Support Systems; Innovations for Healthcare and Inclusive Design; Human-Centered Interaction Design and Experience Part II: Artificial Intelligence for Creativity, Education, and Design; Security, Privacy, and Social Impact; Advances in Immersive and Multimodal Interaction.

Sommario/riassunto

In The Transplant Imaginary, author Lesley Sharp explores the extraordinarily surgically successful realm of organ transplantation, which is plagued worldwide by the scarcity of donated human parts, a quandary that generates ongoing debates over the marketing of organs as patients die waiting for replacements. These widespread anxieties within and beyond medicine over organ scarcity inspire seemingly futuristic trajectories in other fields. Especially prominent, longstanding, and promising domains include xenotransplantation, or efforts to cull fleshy organs from animals for human use, and bioengineering, a field peopled with "tinkerers" intent on designing implantable mechanical devices, where the heart is of special interest. Scarcity, suffering, and sacrifice are pervasive and, seemingly, inescapable themes that frame the transplant imaginary. Xenotransplant experts and bioengineers at work in labs in five Anglophone countries share a marked determination to eliminate scarcity and human suffering, certain that their efforts might one day altogether eliminate any need for parts of human origin. A premise that drives Sharp's compelling ethnographic project is that high-stakes experimentation inspires moral thinking, informing scientists' determination to redirect the surgical trajectory of transplantation and, ultimately, alter the integrity of the human form.
