Muhe Yang

👋 I am a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Information Studies at McGill University and a member of the ACT Research Group, supervised by Prof. Karyn Moffatt.

I am a Human-Computer Interaction researcher and designer. My research goal is to design more accessible technologies for older adults and help them live healthier lives. My doctoral research focuses on investigating how to better design technologies to support physical activity for older adults living alone. By using a user-centered design approach, this project involves understanding user needs through diaries and semi-structured interviews, exploring solutions through co-design workshops, and testing design concepts through interviews. The overview of this research is shown in this poster.

As a trained designer, I hold a M.F.A. in Information Design and Visualization and a B.Eng. in Industrial Design. My design work during my Master’s and undergraduate studies is shown in this portfolio.
