Thrilled that Reality Promises received a best paper award at #UIST2025.

Come see Mo Kari’s talk on the last day of the conference!

📍Wed, at 11:00 AM, in the Sydney room

With the CHI deadline fast approaching, I'm resharing our lab's resource on making figures for HCI papers: docs.google.com/presentation...

New content suggestions always appreciated. Don't be shy to promote your own work!

Researchers made a robot that can make deliveries to VR. They call it Skynet.

In #VR, users can experience “magical” interactions, such as moving distant virtual objects with the Go-Go technique. How might we similarly extend people’s abilities in the physical world? 🪄

Excited to share Reality Promises, our #UIST2025 paper, led by the amazing Mo Kari ✨

Check out Lauren Wang’s #UIST2025 poster on GhostObjects: life-size, world-aligned virtual twins for fast and precise robot instruction, with real-world lasso selection, multi-object manipulation, and snap-to-default placement.

This is the first piece in her ongoing work on #AR for #HRI 🤖👓

📢 Find Judy Fan (@judithfan.bsky.social) at #CogSci2025 during Poster Session 1 (⏰Tomorrow, 1–2:15 PM | 📍Salon 8) to learn about our work on understanding multimodal communication and how people form linguistic and gestural abstractions in collaborative physical tasks.

📢 I successfully defended my PhD dissertation! Huge thanks to my committee (Olga @andresmh.com @jennwv.bsky.social @qveraliao.bsky.social @parastooabtahi.bsky.social) & everyone who supported me ❤️

📢 Next I'll join Apple as a research scientist in the Responsible AI team led by @jeffreybigham.com!

Tue April 29: I'll be cheering Indu Panigrahi present our LBW on interactive AI explanations (w/ Amna, Rohan, Olga, Ruth, @parastooabtahi.bsky.social) in the 10:30-11:10am and 3:40-4:20pm poster sessions (North 1F)

(1/5) Very excited to announce the publication of Bayesian Models of Cognition: Reverse Engineering the Mind. More than a decade in the making, it's a big (600+ pages) beautiful book covering both the basics and recent work: mitpress.mit.edu/978026204941...

Since #AcademicBluesky seems to be a bigger thing now, I wanted to share my PhD admissions advice YouTube resources. Please pass this on to anyone you think it might help! Probably most useful for STEM and especially CS adjacent fields, but broadly applicable. cfiesler.medium.com/phd-admissio...
