Katelyn C. Morrison

DIG Lab @ Carnegie Mellon University.

I am a third year Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon University in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute where I am fortunate to be advised by Adam Perer. My research focuses on improving human-AI collaboration (👩🏻‍💼 + 🤖) by investigating reliance on AI, its impact in the workplace, and the impact of eXplainable AI (XAI). My recent research has focused on interactions with Vision-Language Models in wildlife conservation and medical imaging. My research has been funded by the NIH and the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in May 2021 with a bachelor’s degree in computer science and a certificate in sustainability. In undergrad, I focused on the application and limitations of computer vision models as well as the distribution of smart mobility resources within cities. I also served as a co-organizer for the 2020, 2022, and 2023 Computational Sustainability Workshop.
