DUB at CHI 2025

HCI & Design at the University of Washington will again have a large and quality presence at CHI 2025, the flagship annual conference for research and practice across all areas of HCI & Design. University of Washington authors contributed to 82 papers and journal articles that are to be presented at CHI 2025, including 2 selected for Best Paper Award recognition (selected as top 1% of submissions) and 13 selected for Best Paper Honorable Mention recognition (selected as top 5% of submissions).

This presence draws upon 15 different University of Washington programs. As in all aspects of DUB, interdisciplinary perspectives are the key to great research. Congratulations to all of these authors, and to our outstanding colleagues and collaborators from industry and universities around the world.

We are also happy to celebrate a SIGCHI Societal Impact Award for Alexis Hiniker, the inductions of James Fogarty and Kate Starbird into the SIGCHI Academy, and SIGCHI Special Recognitions for Nadya Peek and Cecilia Aragon. More in the announcement of 2025 ACM SIGCHI Awards.

Finally, we acknowledge that participation in CHI 2025 is complex, with some members of the DUB community unable to attend for in-person participation. We call attention to events organized in support, including our own DUB Research Day.

As many of us head to CHI 2025, we look forward to connecting around this research!
