How to navigate CHI like a Pro! As part of our new Student Mentoring program, Elizabeth Churchill, Ferran Altarriba, and Yvette Wohn ran a panel to introduce everyone to CHI and help them make the most out of our massive program.

Demos are one of the interactive highlights at any CHI! This year we hosted research from VR to taste to touch to tears...oh and a dinosaur.

Tamar Makin & Dani Clode gave us an amazing closing keynote on With, Not For: Rethinking the Body (and Brain?) in Augmented Interaction at #chi2026! Across neuroscience and design, they argue for a shift from imitating the biological body to working with it—questioning assumptions about embodiment and extending the human form and the primacy of the five-finger hand.

CHI 2027 is coming to Pittsburgh!
We are delighted to announce that the ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems will be held May 10-14, 2027 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
Pittsburgh is a city shaped by reinvention: a former steel powerhouse transformed into a thriving hub, bridging technology, design, industry and the arts. In Pittsburgh, stunning architecture meets riverfront parks, world-class universities, and a bold spirit. We can't think of a more fitting home for CHI 2027.
Inspired by Pittsburgh's iconic yellow bridges and CHI's enduring role in connecting people and technology, CHI 2027 invites our community to span the profound distances that face us today: between disciplines, between research and practice, between technical innovation and human values, between the communities we serve and the systems we create. Bridges are acts of intention that bring people together. The CHI community, diverse in background and united in purpose, has itself been one of the most powerful bridges in our field.
Join researchers, practitioners, students, and creators from around the world as we share ideas, build community, and imagine the future of human-computer interaction together at CHI 2027 in Pittsburgh.
Thank you to the CHI2026 organizing committee and the wonderful student volunteers. Goodbye to Barcelona!
