Adam Perer is an Associate Professor at Carnegie Mellon University, where he is a member of the Human-Computer Interaction Institute within the School of Computer Science. He serves as Co-Director of the Data Interaction Group and holds leadership positions as Area Papers Chair at IEEE VIS and Visualization Subcommittee Papers Chair at ACM CHI. Previously, he worked as a Research Scientist at IBM Research. Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, College Park Perer's research integrates data visualization and machine learning techniques to create visual interactive systems that help users make sense of big data. His work focuses on human-centered data science, extracting insights from clinical data to support data-driven medicine, and facilitating human-AI collaboration. He investigates how people engage with and make decisions using data, designing new interfaces to interact with complex information while assisting impactful domains drowning in data. His recent publications reveal a strong trend toward healthcare applications of AI and visualization, particularly in clinical decision support and overdose prevention. There's also a significant focus on explainable AI (XAI), with multiple papers examining how imperfect explanations affect human-AI collaboration and decision-making in critical contexts like healthcare. His work consistently bridges visualization theory with practical applications in high-stakes domains. Best Paper Honorable Mention for 'Dead or Alive: Continuous Data Profiling for Interactive Data Science' (VIS 2023) Best Paper for 'Neo: Generalizing Confusion Matrix Visualization' (CHI 2022) Most Reproducible Paper Award for 'SQLShare' (SIGMOD 2016) Perer actively mentors students across all levels, with PhD students focusing on human-AI collaboration in healthcare settings, visualization techniques, and clinical decision support systems. His lab receives funding for projects related to human-centered AI, data visualization in healthcare, and explainable machine learning systems. The Data Interaction Group, which he co-directs, focuses on empowering everyone to analyze and communicate data through interactive systems. His research has been supported by collaborations with medical institutions and appears in premier venues for visualization, human-computer interaction, and medical informatics. Current projects include Eye into AI (improving XAI interpretability), Predicting and Visualizing Overdose Risk, and AI applications in intensive care units.
