Maryam Rabie Yeganeh

I am a former UX researcher currently pursuing my PhD under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Elaine May Huang at the People and Computing Lab. Additionally, I am a graduate researcher at FHNW, focusing on Requirement Engineering. My background includes two master's degrees in Computer Science and Cognitive Science from the University of Tehran, which inspire my research at the intersection of Human-Centered Generative AI and Social Cognition.

Currently, I am developing a digital companion for breast cancer patients to support their participation in clinical trials as part of an EU Horizon project. My research focuses on designing for fragile older adults, using motivational theory to enhance recruitment and retention in clinical trials.
