Top SchoolJasmine Lu is a Human-Computer Interaction researcher and PhD student at the University of Chicago focused on designing interactive technologies to reduce electronic waste through both technical innovation and cultural shifts. As a researcher in the Human Computer Integration Lab and an NSF Graduate Research Fellow, she blends engineering rigor—grounded in dual undergraduate degrees in Electrical & Computer Engineering and Computer Science from Duke—with a sensitivity to visual media and user experience. Her work, advised by Pedro Lopes, has attracted broad media attention in outlets like The New Scientist, Forbes, and Fast Company, reflecting practical relevance beyond academia. With nearly a decade of research and engineering experience, including internships at Google and roles in immersive systems, she combines prototyping skills with systems thinking to tackle sustainability challenges in computing. An interest in alternative, more sustainable technology visions distinguishes her research agenda from typical performance- or feature-driven HCI projects.
