You have a tendency to underestimate how long it will take you to get ready, prepare lunch, or fight traffic, leading to the familiar, frustrating cycle of running late. In fact, being chronically late can lead to stress, missed opportunities, and even damage your reputation, but there are a few simple tricks you can try to improve your punctuality.
This track recognizes novel, critically important research developments that occurred in the lead-up to International Congress. The research reported in a Late-Breaking Abstract must report data that became available for public dissemination only after the regular abstract submission deadline, and should not have been previously published or presented. It is not intended to provide a forum for case reports, qualitative surveys, reviews of existing treatments, rating scale validation studies, small confirmatory trials, and research proposals.
In addition to accepting abstracts, Late-Breaking Works can also accept demos that showcase research prototypes or commercially available products in a dedicated session. Please review the submission rules carefully before submitting a demo.
LBW submissions must be based on experimental data and not an extension of research that was submitted before the regular abstract deadline. Accepted LBWs will be displayed as posters at CHI 2025 and will have the opportunity to present in an oral platform presentation. Accepted LBWs will also be published as CHI extended abstracts in the ACM Digital Library. LBW authors will be notified in late September regarding their acceptance status. All LBWs must include a paper and may contain an optional appendix.
