Aakash’s Presentation at the 4th Annual Workshop on Novel and Emerging Test Methods & Metrics for Effective HRI
Last week, Aakash presented at the 4th Annual Workshop on Novel and Emerging Test Methods & Metrics for Effective HRI! Here, he discussed the different approaches of studying trust in human-robot collaboration and proposes the use of multimodal biobehavioral approaches to quantify that trust.
You can watch his video here!
Congratulations Dr. Hopko and Dr. Karthikeyan! Next stop… Graduation!
Big news…times 2!!!
Congratulations to Dr. Sarah Hopko and Dr. Rohith Karthikeyan on a successful doctoral defense. The NeuroErgo Lab couldn’t be more proud of you, and all of your accomplishments! We look forward to what your future holds.
Energizing the Brain: NHANCE project @ the NeuroErgonomics Lab
Our undergraduate students Yixin Zhang, Joceleen H., Reed Smoot, and their Ph.D. Mentor, Rohith Karthikeyan, give us a closer look at Neurotechnology for Human Augmentation in Critical Environments (N-HANCE). In this video, they demonstrate instrumentation, workflow, findings from phase one, and what comes next with phase two of the project.

Congrats to our newly minted Dr. Yibo Zhu!!
Texas A&M University – December 11th, 2021
We have a graduate!! Congratulations Dr. Yibo Zhu. The NeuroErgonomics lab will miss you, but we are so excited to see what the future holds. Good luck at Apple as their new Human Factors Design Engineer!
Holiday Potluck – We sure enjoyed food from all over the world!!
The NeuroErgonomics Lab Holiday Potluck! We had an awesome time exchanging white elephant gifts and eating some delicious food. Happy Holidays, everyone!
Undergraduate Research Forum
The NHANCE team discussing the different phases of their project.
Enjoying good food and even better company!
From our Undergraduate Research Forum in November! What a great opportunity to bring our undergraduate, graduate and Ph.D. students together to showcase their research endeavors. Amazing work from every team! Looking forward to the upcoming meeting this month.
New Human Factors article published on Learning under Stress in VR!
Congratulations to Oshin Tyagi, Sarah Hopko, and John Kang on their journal paper in Human Factors on “Modeling Brain Dynamics During Virtual Reality-Based Emergency Response Learning Under Stress.” Great work!
