About

Cosmin Munteanu is a leading voice in human-computer interaction, whose work bridges the critical gap between aging populations and emerging technologies. His research centers on conversational user interfaces (CUIs), multimodal interaction, and accessible computing for older adults. Munteanu’s major contribution lies in shaping the foundational agenda for CUI research, as demonstrated by his highly influential workshop paper “CUI@CHI: Mapping Grand Challenges for the Conversational User Interface Community” (24 citations), which helped define the field’s core questions and build a cohesive research community. He also addresses the pressing needs of an aging society through his work on “Multimodal technologies for seniors: challenges and opportunities” (11 citations), where he explores how voice, touch, and gesture-based systems can provide practical, dignified support for adults over 65. By advocating for inclusive design and interdisciplinary collaboration, Munteanu ensures that technological progress does not leave vulnerable users behind. His contributions are essential reading for students and researchers interested in creating more equitable, human-centered digital futures.
