UBC InfoVis @ IEEE VIS 2023 [10/2023]
Tamara Munzner (alongside group alumni Matthew Brehmer) is celebrating another Test of Time award for the 2013 paper on abstract visualization tasks. Tamara has been serving as an Overall Papers Chair for VIS23, will present a tutorial on Visualization Analysis and Design, and give a keynote talk at VDS. She was recently named an IEEE Fellow. She is co-editor of the AK Peters Visualization book series with CRC/Routledge, which will have both a physical table at the conference and a virtual bookstore.
PhD student Francis Nguyen is co-author of honorable mention VIS23 paper Average Estimates in Line Graphs are Biased Towards Areas of Higher Variability and will also attend in person, say hello to him!
Since our last in-person party in 2019, Jürgen Bernard has become an assistant professor at Zurich, and Charles Berret has joined Miriah Meyer for a postdoc at Linköping. Two PhD students finished: Zipeng Liu is now a Beihang prof, and Michael Oppermann has joined Vienna’s Virtual Identity.
The West Coast Party returns Tue night and we're co-hosting: https://web.uvic.ca/~cperin/west-coast-party-23/
