I will also be cheering on Matya, a very talented undergrad (!!) who led: “Investigating the Effects of Photography on Recall.”

📸 We ran a study to better understand the effects of photography on memory, and our results show that people recall fewer objects when they take photos of them. #CHI2026

I'll be at #CHI2026 to present: “Designing and Evaluating AI Margin Notes in Document Reader Software!” 🎉

We propose "AI margin notes" that integrate LLMs into comments, and explore how integration, selection automation, and human-AI involvement affect comprehension, workload, and user behaviours.

Consider submitting your HCI and Graphics research to GI 2026, which will be held in Waterloo, ON! 🪿

The first deadline for Graphics Interface 2026 is TODAY! Authors can submit their work to PCS until 11:59pm AoE. ✍️
