We will share more about our dear friend and colleague later this week, but we at the Playful Learning Lab are holding Eleni and her loved ones in our thoughts.

I am mourning the passing of my friend, collaborator, and PLL/UST colleague, Dr. Eleni Roulis. I will always remember her smiling, and will always be grateful we got to do one big/audacious/fun project together just months before she became sick. I'll miss you, Eleni.
