Welcome to my academic homepage! My name is Char Lang, and I am a researcher in the Department of Human-Centered Computing and Social Informatics at Penn State University. Broadly, my work lies at the intersection of technology, society, and design, where I explore how digital systems influence human behavior and how we can build more equitable, user-centered technologies. Through my academic journey, I aim to bridge the gap between complex computational systems and the diverse social contexts in which they operate.

On this website, you can learn more about my ongoing research initiatives, academic background, and professional activities. I am deeply passionate about understanding the social impacts of technology and finding innovative ways to improve human-computer interactions. Please feel free to explore my site, and do not hesitate to reach out if you would like to collaborate, discuss my research, or connect over shared academic interests!
