We publish across Computer Science, Design, Human-computer Interaction, and domain-specific venues such as healthcare-related journals.

Primary mean of publication for computing research, are conference proceedings. Many conferences organized by ACM (e.g., CHI, UbiComp, UIST, CSCW, IUI, ASSETS, etc.) and IEEE (e.g., ISMAR, IEEE VR etc.) are considered top publication venues for human-computer interaction. Sometimes, we also published at journals such as TOCHI and IMWUT. If you are interested in recent SIGCHI research, please refer to this page.

Please refer to PI's Google Scholar page for a complete list of authored publications.
