Olivia B. Newton, Ph.D.

I study how people learn, make decisions, and collaborate across software development, scientific work, and human-AI systems. My research thus spans cognitive science, computer-supported cooperative work, and software engineering to answer questions such as:

‣ How is AI transforming collaboration in scientific computing?
‣ What helps scientific software teams learn and adapt?
‣ How can computational tools better support team cognition?
