Brittany Johnson-Matthews, Assistant Professor, Computer Science, received funding from the National Science Foundation for: "Conference: VL/HCC 2023 Graduate Consortium."
This award will support the Graduate Consortium at this year's IEEE Conference on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC), which will be held in Washington, D.C. October 2-6, 2023.
Johnson-Matthews said, "This funding will support the ability for students across the country to come together, network, share their research, and curate advice on completing their PhD from senior members of the VL/HCC community."
VL/HCC is the premier international forum for research on the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and programming languages that are easy for people to learn, use, and understand.
The conference focuses on enabling more people to apply the tools of programming in a variety of domains, which makes it an important context to explore adaptable and customizable socio-technical systems.
Johnson-Matthews received $19,968 from NSF for this award. Funding began in July 2023 and will end in late June 2024.
