Bor Gregorcic serves as an Associate Professor (Docent) and University Lecturer in Physics Education at Uppsala University's Department of Physics and Astronomy. His academic work bridges theoretical frameworks in science education with practical applications of educational technology. Gregorcic's research program spans several interconnected domains: Physics education research focusing on conceptual understanding in mechanics and statistical mechanics Embodiment and multimodal approaches to science learning Educational technology applications including interactive whiteboards and digital learning environments Emerging applications of artificial intelligence in physics education contexts Teacher professional development and pedagogical content knowledge His recent publication trajectory (2023-2025) reveals a significant pivot toward AI applications in physics education, with multiple studies examining ChatGPT's performance in interpreting physics concepts, visual representations, and kinematics graphs. This represents an evolution from his earlier foundational work on embodiment in science education and multimodal learning, where he explored conceptual blending, gesture studies, and the use of digital tools like Algodoo. His research consistently addresses how students develop conceptual understanding through various representational forms. Gregorcic has been recognized with the 'Excellent Teacher' award at Uppsala University, highlighting his commitment to pedagogical excellence. He maintains active research collaborations with Giulia Polverini, Elias Euler, Trevor Volkwyn, Ebba Koerfer, and other international scholars. His work appears predominantly in leading physics education research journals including Physical Review Physics Education Research, European Journal of Physics, and Physics Education, demonstrating significant impact in the field.
