I am Bingcan(Gloria) Guo, a master's student in the Department of Human-Centered Design & Engineering (HCDE) at the University of Washington. My research focuses on human-AI interaction, usable privacy, and social computing. I study user behavior within emerging tech-mediated contexts and design interventions to enhance user autonomy. My work employs mixed methods and involves systems development.

I am deeply grateful to be advised by professor Amy X. Zhang at UW Social Futures Lab where I research the harms of online misinformation. I also have the privilege of working under the supervision of professor Tianshi Li at Northeastern University PEACH Lab and research on privacy-preserving LLMs. During my undergraduate studies, I'm very fortunate to be mentored by professor Xiaojuan Ma at the HKUST HCI Initiative where I conducted research in educational technology.
