Its last two iterations held virtually due to the pandemic, CHI – the premier annual conference for human computer interaction scholars – is back in a big way, returning with a hybrid in-person and virtual format beginning April 30 in New Orleans.
And once again, Cornell University will be there: 16 papers – including two Best Papers and two Honorable Mentions – highlight Big Red’s contributions to CHI (pronounced kai).
Preview below some of the leading research our esteemed faculty and students will tote down to the Big Easy.
Honors
