Hyperbody takes pride in being one of the leading departments at the Faculty of Architecture to produce cutting edge research in the domains of interactive and nonstandard architecture, which is being further strengthened by PhD research output internationally presented and published in conference proceedings, journals, and books as well as exhibitions. Furthermore, Hyperbody is involved in the European Observatory of Doctoral Research in Architecture (http://www.enhsa.net/main/observatory/) and has two members, in the scientific committee (http://www.enhsa.net/archidoct/committees.html) of its journal.
