See you in #Vancouver 🇨🇦
Had an amazing time at #EMNLP2024! 🌴🍹
Loved every moment of engaging conversations with old and new friends.
Looking forward to seeing you again at future conferences! 🙌✨
After going to NAACL, ACL and #EMNLP2024 this year, here are a few tips I’ve picked up about attending *ACL conferences.
Would love to hear any other tips if you have them! 🙂
1. This might be obvious, but I suggest showing everyone the same respect and interest regardless of how prestigious their university is, how junior they are, or how famous they are. I think everyone has lots of interesting things to say and is worth the time to talk to 🙂
2. Don’t be afraid to say hi to random people you don’t know, and be like “is it ok if I join you?”. Sometimes it won’t work out, but most of the time people will be happy to chat. I’m always nervous the first few times, but it quickly becomes natural.
3. Try not to be hard on yourself about social situations. I find that social situations don’t always go perfectly, and that’s ok. I think most of us feel awkward sometimes. Just keep at it and learn as you go 🙂
4. I now start reading conference papers when the accepted paper list is out (well before the conference starts). This helps me to take things in much better during the conference itself.
5. I’m also way more proactive messaging people on the conference app, eg if another PhD student has done a paper I really like I’ll ask to have a chat.
6. Don’t miss out on the workshops! They’re such a fantastic way of meeting people with similar research interests.
7. Be generous with your own time too if people message you and would like to talk. I’ve had really cool conversations with people who have messaged me.
8. Plan at the beginning of the day (or night before) which posters you want to visit, and write down the titles. Then at the beginning of each poster session write down the board IDs for these papers. I love being spontaneous, but I find having an initial plan stops me wandering aimlessly.
9. When presenting a poster, personally I like to acknowledge people who arrive when I’m still talking to someone so they don’t feel ignored, eg “I’ll start from the beginning again in x minutes”, or just saying hi!
10. Posters are often better than orals. I personally only watch oral talks online rather than sitting through the sessions. In my experience posters are a much better use of time.
Anything you think i should add to my list for next time? 🙂 Or more importantly is there anything above you think I’m doing wrong??
P.S. there was a great tweet going around before EMNLP with some advice before the conference. I can’t find it now, but thanks to the author for the idea!

I am at Miami for #EMNLP2024 🌴
I will be presenting our #AIEd research on (1) LLM-as-a-tutor (2) Dashboard for teachers at @customnlp4u workshop (Sat 11:00~12:00).
Feel free to reach me to chat on LLM-integrated education🤗
Our amazing research teams, @imjuhokim@aliceoh@hyunwoojkim, are collaborating with @Google to develop a cutting-edge personalized AI tutor over the next three years.
Excited for incredible #AIEd collaboration bringing together #NLProc, #computervision, and #HCI perspectives!✨
Well-structured video on scientific writing!
When my undergrad mentee brought a first draft of his first paper, I told him to "analyze the structure" of at least three papers to figure out what scientific writing should look like. Now I can send this video, thanks to Sasha!
New Video: How to write an okay research paper.
Reviewers all agree! @srush_nlp's papers are "reasonably structured" and "somewhat clear, despite other flaws".

Had a meaningful experience organizing pre-#ACL2024 workshop at KAIST💙 Sharing ideas is always exciting, but it was even greater with these amazing #NLProc people!✨
We are hosting wonderful NLP colleagues at KAIST on their way to ACL Bangkok! 🤩 On-site registration is closed, but the talks will be broadcast on Zoom. Please join us!

I am often asked, “what is your secret recruiting female students?” Female students make up less than 20% of CS at KAIST, faculty similar proportion. My research group is >50% female.
Yes, my female gender certainly plays a big role. But I let my students know, from the very beginning, that D&I is a top priority value, because without that, we are heading straight toward failure. The ultimate goal of AI is to serve the human race, of which 50% are female. How can we solve problems for women, the historically disadvantaged gender, when the developers of the technology do not understand the needs of the female gender? https://t.co/dM1ePcbcg8
Let's be honest. For everyone in ML/NLP, it's a really exciting time but also very stressful with so many new papers, models, benchmarks, deadlines, reviews, talks, workshops, conferences...
How do you keep up and stay sane?
For me, the only solution is collaboration. 1/n
