Name:Yalong Yang

Bio:

I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Tech.

Before joining Georgia Tech, I spent two wonderful years at Virginia Tech as a faculty member. Prior to this, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Visual Computing Group at Harvard University and received my Ph.D. from the Human-Centred Computing Department at Monash University, Australia.

My research encompasses a wide range of topics within the fields of Visualization (VIS), VR/AR, and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I actively contribute to these communities and regularly publish my work in leading venues such as IEEE VIS, ACM CHI, IEEE TVCG, EuroVis, and IEEE VR. I am honored to have received three best paper honorable mention awards, notably from IEEE VIS in 2016 and 2022, as well as ACM CHI in 2021.
