Research of the Institute for Information Systems (WIN) is represented by 5 full papers, 3 posters and 2 workshops at the ACM CHI conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, the leading international conference on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).  CHI 2026 will take place in Barcelona from April 13th to 17th, 2026. 

Many of the presented works at CHI 2026 are closely linked to the DFG-funded Research Training Group KD2School, which focuses on processing biosignals continuously emitted by human beings using state-of-the-art sensor technology and on this basis designing biosignal-adaptive systems in which humans and information technologies continuously co-adapt to each other. 

We congratulate the participating scientists and wish them a successful conference. Further information about the program and the papers is available here: https://programs.sigchi.org/chi/2026/program
