STAFF PROFILE
Dr. Johanne Trippas
Dr Johanne Trippas is a Vice-Chancellor’s Research Fellow. She works at the intersection of conversational systems, interactive information retrieval, human-computer interaction, and dialogue analysis.
Dr Johanne Trippas is a Vice-Chancellor’s Research Fellow at the School of Computing Technologies, STEM College. Recently, her work has focused on developing next-generation capabilities for intelligent systems, including spoken conversational search, digital assistants in cockpits, and artificial intelligence to identify cardiac arrests.
She completed her PhD in Computer Science investigating Conversational Systems at RMIT University in 2019 under the supervision of Professor Lawrence Cavedon, Professor Mark Sanderson, and Doctor Damiano Spina. She was awarded the RMIT University Deputy Vice-Chancellor’s Higher Degree by Research Prize for her doctoral work and thesis. Previously, she was a Doreen Thomas Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne.
She has been an ACM SIGIR Student Liaison, and has co-organized tutorials and workshops at ACM SIGIR and ACM CHIIR. Johanne is also appointed as ACM SIGIR Artifact Evaluation Committee vice-chair and ACM CHIIR Steering Committee member. She is currently serving as ACM SIGIR 2022 Workshops Chair and ACM CUI 2022 Full Papers Chair.
