Sarah Schömbs
Hi there!
I am Sarah Schömbs, a PhD student at the School of Computing & Information Systems, Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology, University of Melbourne. I am working on the intersection of Human-Robot Interaction and Data Visualisation. My current research focuses on human-centered risk communication in human-robot collaboration and its potential effects on perceived transparency, decision-making and trust.
