Chorong Park serves on ICCR 2026 technical program committee

Park's committee service connects ELARA's work on everyday human-robot interaction with the wider control and robotics research community.

Chorong Park is serving on the technical program committee for the eighth International Conference on Control and Robotics, scheduled for December 11-13, 2026, in Tokyo, Japan. The conference's official committee page lists Park with the University of Houston. [1][2][3]

In her November 5 announcement, Park described enjoying the chance to see how colleagues across robotics and control approach challenges in their fields. ICCR invites both theoretical and practical research, giving the committee work a scope beyond any one application of robotics. [1][2]

Park connected that service with ELARA Lab's research on how people interact with robots in everyday life, particularly in aging and care. This brings a people-centered question into the broader technical conversation: how robots become part of daily routines, not only how they perform a task. [1]
