Hi, I'm Mara Ulloa

I am a U.S. National Science Foundation GRFP Fellow, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Researcher, and fourth-year PhD Student in the department of Computer Science (CS) at Northwestern University (NU) in the Robert R. McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science. As a member of the Personalized & Adaptive Technology for Health (NU-PATH) lab, my PhD work is mentored by Dr. Maia L. Jacobs.

I specialize in using HCI methodologies to design and evaluate user-centered technologies.

My research focuses on co-designing machine learning solutions for healthcare, emphasizing the end user's perspective. One of my current projects in this space involves working with the Center for Advancing Safety of Machine Intelligence (CASMI) to Co-Design Patient-Facing Machine Learning for Prenatal Stress Reduction.
