The first SydCHI Research Day will be held on December 7th, 2020, on the University of Sydney’s Darlington campus. It is a great opportunity to meet fellow HCI researchers and practitioners.
Our aim for the day is to give everyone a moment to introduce themselves and to explore common themes in our work.
