Hi everyone, For next week's accessibility lunch, we have Kyrie Zhixuan  
Zhou joining us remotely from UIUC. Please find the talk details below:  
Talk title: Can Accessibility Research Impact Real-World Software  
Accessibility? Design, Education, and Governance Talk info: Academics have  
devoted significant efforts to researching software accessibility and  
assistive technologies. However, myriad accessibility pitfalls are still  
present in software in the wild. What should we do? Kyrie Zhou argues that  
accessibility research and industrial practices are often siloed, leading  
to suboptimal outcomes. Drawing on his published and ongoing accessibility  
research, he will present how researchers may impact real-world design,  
education, and governance of software accessibility. Research can be  
translated into practical design guidelines for designers. Research can be  
translated into educational materials to teach next-generation designers  
about accessibility. Research can be translated into policy recommendations  
to inform legislation and regulation. This pragmatic approach has the  
potential to reduce the gap between numerous accessibility research and  
persisting accessibility issues in software, but challenges remain. Speaker  
bio: Kyrie Zhixuan Zhou is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Information  
Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research  
interests are broadly in tech accessibility, tech ethics, and tech  
education. He aspires to design, govern, and teach about ICT/AI experience  
for vulnerable populations. Looking forward to this interesting talk! Join  
us at NSH 4201 at noon on Monday, 25th March. Thanks and regards, Peya
