UofT Critical Computing G2G: Cross-Lab Gathering

This gathering brings together research groups working at the intersections of computing, design, and society — a chance to hear what others are exploring, share what you’re working on, and discover points of overlap or collaboration. Each presenter will have five minutes to introduce their work, followed by a short Q&A. We’ll wrap up with pizza and informal networking to keep the conversations going.
