Anh Nguyen founded and directs Mobile Cyber-Physical Intelligence (mCyPhi) Lab at the University of Montana, where her team is focusing on designing, developing, and deploying novel sensing and intervention technologies for smart health, the Internet of Things, and human-computer interactions. Her team's overarching research mission is to broaden the potential of cyber-physical systems through multimodal data fusion and interpretation frameworks in multidisciplinary research, including the understanding of human activities, augmentation of human capabilities, prediction of future human health problems, operation in inaccessible conditions, and efficiency. She is actively pushing her research outcomes to practice through technology transfer activities with 4 patents filed.


She is the recipient of CACM Research Highlights 2018, 2021, ACM SIGMOBILE Research Highlights 2016, 2017, Best Paper awards from ACM SenSys 2016, ACM MobiCom-S3 2017, ACM MobiCom 2019, Best Paper Runner Up award from ACM MobiCom 2017, and Best Paper Nominee from ACM SenSys 2018 and received wide press coverage from MIT TechReview and The Children's Hospital Colorado Center for Innovation. She also received the Honorable Mention Grad Talk from RMCWiC, an ACM Celebration Event, in 2018. She obtained her Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of Colorado Boulder, her M.S. degree in Computer Science from Chonnam National University (South Korea), and her B.S. degree in Computer Science from University of Science, VNU-HCMC (Vietnam).


She is looking for self-motivated Ph.D. students to work on research projects in Mobile Systems, Smart Healthcare, and Machine Learning. Check my "Notes to Prospective Students" if you are interested in joining the team!
