Minsol "Michelle" Kim is a Master's student and researcher at the MIT Media Lab. Her past work spans Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), IoT, wearable devices, Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs), and HealthML. She has presented and published at major conferences, including CHI and IEEE BSN.
She graduated Magna Cum Laude from Wellesley College with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Statistics. As a certified GEL2 in the MIT Gordon Engineering Leadership Program, she has coached and led students from MIT and Wellesley, collaborating with industry experts to cultivate engineering leadership.
Her current research draws from AI and cognitive science, focusing on topics such as emotion regulation, memory, and mental health in the elderly population using wearable technologies.
She is currently working on three distinct projects:
- Exploring the Effects of Wearable Haptic Feedback on Interoceptive Awareness and Emotion Regulation
- Predicting Heart Arrhythmia Using Medical RAG, LLM, and Multimodal ECG Data
- Developing a Memory-Journaling System for Cognitive Reappraisal, which focuses on text-based interactions with plans to incorporate speech capabilities in the future.
Minsol is also actively seeking motivated UROP students for spring & summer 2025 to contribute to these efforts. Feel free to email Michelle for details.
