Dyson School of Design Engineering at 2024 CHI Conference

The Dyson School of Design Engineering is set to present 8 papers at the 2024 CHI conference, showcasing cutting-edge in human-computer interaction.

The Dyson School of Design Engineering at Imperial proudly announces its participation in the upcoming 2024 ACM (Association of Computing Machinery) CHI conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, the foremost international gathering in the field of human-computer interaction (HCI). This year's conference will be held in a hybrid format from May 11-16, combining in-person and remote attendance, with the event taking place in in Honolulu, at the Hawai'i Convention Center on the island of O'ahu, Hawai'i, USA.

Among the highlights of the conference, the Design Engineering department will present a total of eight papers, including two receiving honourable mentions for their exceptional contributions. These papers, authored by esteemed faculty and researchers, cover a diverse range of topics at the intersection of design engineering and HCI.

The department will be represented by a mix of in-person and remote attendees. Professor Peter Childs, Malak Sadek, Haoyu Zuo, and Ignacio Vilanova Echavarri will be present at the conference venue, while Professor Andrew McPherson, Dr Céline Mougenot and Nicole Robinson will participate remotely. This year marks the debut of many of Design Engineering staff members and students at CHI, underscoring the department's commitment to advancing research in the HCI community.
