Late-breaking is the use of short, sharp news items and alert crawls to break major breaking stories into regular television or radio news programs. Until the advent of 24-hour news networks, such interruptions to programming were reserved for the most critical news events, such as the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy in 1963 or a landfalling hurricane, and were usually accompanied by a voice-over announcing the urgency of the story.
All Late-Breaking Works (LBW) must be novel and of critically important interest to the CHI community, report data that became available for public dissemination after the deadline for regular abstract submission, and have not been previously published or presented. Accepted LBW will be given an opportunity to present in a CHI 2025 poster session and included in the CHI Extended Abstracts.
LBW submissions do not need to be anonymous but authors may include an appendix containing any additional relevant information they wish to share (e.g., study protocol, statistical analysis). All LBW submissions must be made through the PCS system. Click here for instructions. The $255 submission fee for LBW is separate from the conference registration fee.
