Our paper CalmReminder has been accepted to CHI 2026! CalmReminder is a smartwatch-based system that detects children’s calm moments and sends just-in-time prompts to parents to notice and reinforce positive behaviors.

Just found out our CHI 2023 work "CatAlyst", which designs an intervention to prevent procrastination, was mentioned in a Forbes article. Discovered it, of course, while procrastinating on my current project...🫠 forbes.com/sites/lanceeliot/…

This is the 2025 cohort of the Ubicomp Doctoral Colloquium. Some of the best PhD students in this area. We're standing here in front of Dipoli, the beautiful main venue of the conference. I look forward to hearing about these students as they move on after their PhDs.

Advertising for our #UIST2025 Workshop! A powerful convergence of context sensing, generative AI, robotics, and augmented/mixed reality is opening new doors for designing cyber-physical systems that enhance accessibility and inclusion in everyday life. From AI-generated instructional support to multimodal interfaces and assistive robotics, these technologies hold the potential to break down long-standing barriers in cooking, personal care, creative expression, and beyond. Our upcoming UIST 2025 Workshop on Accessible Cyber-Physical Systems will bring together researchers across HCI, accessibility, AI, AR/VR, and assistive robotics to chart this future. Through talks, panels, and collaborative brainstorming, we’ll explore how to design technologies that support the goals. We’d love to hear your interests, suggestions, and intent to participate! Please share your thoughts through this short form: docs.google.com/forms/u/2/d/…. More info can be found: accessible-cps.github.io/.

In the past week, I gave talks on my PhD research "Human-Centered AI Systems for Task Learning" at Jeff Bigham, Mayang Goel (@mynkgoel), and Paul Liang (@pliang279)'s labs! It's always fun and inspiring to talk with different research groups :) Thanks for having me!

My students put up a banner on our building announcing my tenure! I don't know if they planned it to be the first thing almost entering CMU sees. 😅 They also put stickies with my random tweets all over the building. I didn't realize I had made so many dad jokes on Twitter.
