Ravin
Balakrishnan is a Professor at the Department
of Computer Science, University of Toronto
where he co-directs the Dynamic Graphics
Project (DGP) laboratory. He served as the department s chair from
2015-2019. His research interests are in Human Computer Interaction (HCI),
Information and Communications Technology for Development, and Interactive
Computer Graphics. He is the recipient of an Alfred P. Sloan Research
Fellowship, a Canada Research Chair, an Ontario Premier's Research Excellence
Award, the Bell University Laboratories Associate Chair in HCI, the Canadian
Human Computer Communications Society Achievement Award, multiple best paper type
awards at the top conferences in his field, and was inducted into the ACM CHI
Academy in 2011. In addition to working with students and colleagues at
Toronto, he collaborates with researchers at leading industrial laboratories
and universities worldwide, including stints as a visiting researcher at
Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL), the University of Paris &
INRIA Paris and Lille, Microsoft Research s Redmond, Beijing, Bangalore and
Cambridge labs, and Hewlett Packard Labs Bangalore. He has been a co-founder of
several companies commercializing research conducted in his lab, including Bump
Technologies Inc (acquired by Google), FindSpace (acquired by Cougar Group),
and Conceptualiz. He earned his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of
Toronto, working with Bill Buxton,
while concurrently a part-time researcher at Alias|wavefront (now part of
Autodesk). He actively consults for various leading companies as a testifying
technical expert on intellectual property matters in multiple countries.
Further information, including publications and videos demonstrating some of
his research, can be obtained from www.dgp.toronto.edu/~ravin
