Minsol "Michelle" Kim is a Graduate student and a researcher at the MIT Media Lab.
Her research centers on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and multimodal AI, with a focus on integrating biomarkers from wearable technologies to augment human capabilities. Drawing on psychology and philosophy, she develops interactive systems and computational approaches for human–AI interaction that support mental health, emotion regulation, and behavioral change. Michelle is also actively involved in AHA (Advancing Humans with AI) Program and is an instructor for MAS.S64 Designing AI for Human Flourishing course this upcoming fall 2025.
Before joining the MIT Media Lab, Michelle graduated Magna Cum Laude from Wellesley College with a bachelor’s degree in computer science and mathematics. As a certified GEL 2 in the MIT Gordon Engineering Leadership Program, she has coached and led students from MIT and Wellesley, working with industry mentors to cultivate engineering leadership. Her past research spans wearable devices, brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), and health ML, and she has presented at major conferences including CHI and IEEE BSN.
Michelle is actively seeking collaborators and motivated UROP students for fall 2025 to contribute to these efforts. Feel free to email Michelle with resume and brief statement of interest for collaboration.
