Hi! I am Muzhe (沐哲, pronounced /mù tʂɤ́/), currently a visiting research student at the Human-Computer Interaction Institute (HCII) at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) advised by David Lindlbauer.

My research interest lies at the intersection of human-computer interaction and extended reality. I investigate human cognitive processes (e.g., learning, attention, agency) in relation to input-output channels (e.g., vision, hearing, motor systems) and develop interfaces / interaction techniques / experiences to augment them.

Previously, I obtained a Master’s degree in Educational Technology and Applied Learning Science from CMU HCII, and a dual Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan (UMich) and Electrical and Computer Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I was fortunate to kick off my research journey at UMich with Anhong Guo and Xu Wang building AR intelligent tutoring systems, and during my Master’s at CMU HCII, collaborated with Hong Shen on socio-technical responsible AI.

Outside of work, I enjoy sports (e.g., figure skating, basketball), music, and travel.
