Donghoon Shin 

I am a Ph.D. student in Human Centered Design & Engineering at the University of Washington, advised by Profs. Gary Hsieh and Lucy Lu Wang. I am also a student researcher at
Google, working on advancing the use of Gemini
My research lies at the intersection of HCI and NLP. One focus is translational science, where I design and develop AI systems to make scholarly articles more accessible to real-world practitioners (e.g., designers). Another focus is on building agent-driven systems to support decision-making in goal-oriented tasks
I received my B.S. in Electrical & Computer Engineering and Information Science at Seoul National University, where I was supported by the Presidential Science Scholarship. Previously, I was a research intern at Adobe Research and Naver AI, and a software engineer Elecle
