CV
Mina Lee is an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science and Data Science Institute at the University of Chicago. Her research examines the evolving relationship between people and AI, with a particular focus on writing, reading, and thinking with AI. She designs and evaluates AI systems, identifies opportunities and risks of AI-assisted writing, reading, and thinking, and measures AI's impact through user studies, controlled experiments, and surveys. Her work appears in both generalist journals (e.g., Nature Human Behavior) and top-tier conferences in HCI (e.g., CHI), NLP (e.g., ACL and NAACL), and machine learning (e.g., NeurIPS). In 2022, Mina was named one of MIT Technology Review's Korean Innovators under 35. Her work on human-AI collaborative writing received an Honorable Mention Award at CHI 2022 and was featured in various media outlets, including The Economist. She has co-founded and organized multiple workshops, including Intelligent and Interactive Writing Assistants (In2Writing), Human-centered Evaluation and Auditing of Language Models (HEAL), and Tools for Thought (TfT) at ACL and CHI. Outside academia, she writes for broader audiences: She authored How to Apply to Graduate Schools in the US (2017), and contributed chapters to The AI Asks, the Future Answers (2025) and AI Insiders — Future Reports from Global Top-Tier Experts (2025).
