Jiwon Moon

I am a first year CS Ph.D. student in the Human-Robot Interaction Lab at the University of Chicago advised by Dr. Sarah Sebo. I received my B.S. in Computer Science in Johns Hopkins University in 2021 where I was advised by Dr. Chien-Ming Huang and Dr. Ziang Xiao. My research lies at the intersection of Human–Robot Interaction and Human-Centered AI. More broadly, I am interested in human–AI interaction, interaction design, explainability, and promoting equitable collaboration in team-based settings.
