German Pre-CHI 2022
6-7 April 2022 at Îçҹ̽»¨
Inspired by the Scottish tradition of meeting researchers from all over Scotland shortly before going to CHI, this tradition was brought by to Germany to bring the German HCI community and friends closer together. The idea of the German Pre-CHI Event is to provide an opportunity for researchers from Germany to present their accepted CHI papers and discuss them in a smaller circle. Additionally, it provides an excellent opportunity for younger researchers to get a taste of the quality of work presented at CHI and network with other peers, as well as senior researchers. Therefore, everyone from students to professors interested in HCI is welcome.
The event is taking place over two days and includes paper talks, poster/demo sessions, coffee breaks, lunch and lots of informal discussions. We are planning to have several paper sessions, in which young researchers will present their paper talks. After each presentation we will have a discussion session, which will include the "usual" CHI discussion, but also comments and suggestions on presentation style, slides, etc. in order to optimally prepare you for a (potential) in-person presentation at CHI. There will also be an informal session where late-breaking works and demos can be presented and discussed.

Venue
We are happy to be able to organize the German Pre-CHI 2022 as an onsite event.
The German Pre-CHI 2022 will be located in building O28 at Îçҹ̽»¨ (, PDF, Campus Navigator). We suggest to use public transport to drive to the venue. You should leave the tram or bus at Universität Süd, Ulm.
