Minsuk Chang

PhD student, Visualization Lab at Georgia Tech

My research field is Data Visualization and Human-Computer Interaction, understanding and supporting how humans perceive and interact with data. I try to combine cognitive science and computing to better support human-AI interaction.

I'm a 3rd-year PhD student advised by Cindy Xiong Bearfield. I've interned at Tableau Research @ Salesforce (Summer 2025) and the Superintelligence Lab at LG AI Research (Summer 2026). This fall, I'm joining Dolby Laboratories' Advanced Technology Group as a PhD Research Intern.
