This May, innovators from Cornell University are hitting the road to San Jose, CA for CHI 2016, considered the top conference in the field of human-computer interaction. Cornell-affiliated researchers will present 15 papers, participate in several panels, workshops and special interest groups, and even showcase their art at the conference to be held May 7-12. Here are all the details of work representing both our Ithaca and New York City (Cornell Tech) campuses:
