The Human-AI Lab at University of Michigan is at #CHI2026!
I am not there at CHI myself, please say hi to our lab folks, and hope to see many of you at #UIST2026! Also check out the many contributions by UMich CSE, School of Information, and beyond: https://t.co/WoPCNmpcgy
New accessibility techniques are developed all the time in HCI research, but they don’t often make it into the deployed applications that people use every day. What if you could add a missing feature to your assistive technology *without* waiting for the app to update? #CHI2026
If you’re interested in accessibility, DIY technology, or AI software creation tools, I’d love to connect! Come find the talk: Wednesday, April 15, Augmenting Expression and Communication, 9:00–10:30am, Room P1-120. (5/n)
Interested PhD students should apply to the Tufts Computer Science Department by the December 15th, 2025 deadline! More info at: https://t.co/uBoOTANePX

Looking forward to this year's PhD in technical HCI office hour this Wednesday 10/29 10.30am ET: https://t.co/P4MtimYTz3 Ask your questions! Join me and other faculty to discuss admissions process, statements, and overall what a PhD is like and good for :) RT appreciated
We’re overwhelmed by the response to ASSETS 2025; this will be the largest ASSETS yet! We must limit new in-person registrations. Please sign up on our waitlist in case spots open up https://t.co/UOXPF9b61Z. Virtual reg is still available. More details: https://t.co/nLS8gFlyei.
I love this summary of "what to learn in a PhD."
What Jack points out seems like a simple principle, but living through the intellectual uncertainty and chaos of being lost in your research for a long time—it's emotionally much harder learn to do it than it sounds.
@TuftsUniversity@TuftsCS I owe many thanks to my advisor, mentors, collaborators, friends and family that have supported me through my PhD. So grateful for the opportunities and looking forward to what’s ahead. For now, back to thesis writing 😄 (2/2)
I’m so happy to share that I’ll be joining @TuftsUniversity@TuftsCS as an Assistant Professor in January 2026! 🥳 I’ll be recruiting PhD students this upcoming cycle, so keep an eye out for more info if you’re interested in accessibility, AI, and HCI! (1/2)
🎉So proud of PhD student @jayhersk Jaylin Herskovitz for receiving the @umichgradschool Susan Lipschutz Award! Congrats!👏
It recognizes her outstanding achievements, the interest in social responsibility, & a commitment to supporting women in academia.
