On Tuesday, April 12 Talia Devanadero, a member of Fashioning Circuits and the co-lead of the technical team for The Migrant Steps Project, presented a research poster as part of the Undergraduate Research Scholar Awards Poster Contest Symposium.
Talia is a second year undergraduate Computer Science major and has been a Fashioning Circuits member since Fall 2020. Her poster, “Encoding Steps, Decoding Stories: Mobilizing Technology in Service of Migrant Narratives” addressed the work she has been doing in collaboration with Atanur Andic and Nishanshi Shukla with the support of a UT Dallas Proposal Resubmission Program grant. They have been helping us respond to grant reviewer feedback about the feasibility of data extraction from, and communication with, fitness trackers.
Congratulations, Talia! We so appreciate your contributions to The Migrant Steps Project and we’re thrilled that the University of Texas at Dallas recognized your work as an Undergraduate Research Scholar.
