Paper Accepted to HCI International 2026: Multi-Agent Courtroom Simulation System for Forensic Nursing Testimony Training

The Soft Interaction Lab is pleased to announce that our paper, "Multi-Agent Courtroom Simulation System for Forensic Nursing Testimony Training," has been accepted for presentation at HCI International 2026, one of the leading international conferences in human-computer interaction.

The paper introduces an innovative multi-agent simulation platform designed to support forensic nursing education through realistic courtroom testimony training. By leveraging intelligent AI agents and immersive interactive technologies, the system provides learners with opportunities to practice expert witness testimony in dynamic courtroom scenarios. The platform enables trainees to develop communication skills, strengthen confidence, and experience authentic legal proceedings within a safe and repeatable learning environment.

This research explores how multi-agent systems can create adaptive courtroom simulations that respond to learners' testimony and questioning, offering a scalable and engaging approach to forensic nursing education. The work demonstrates the potential of AI-driven simulation to enhance experiential learning for healthcare professionals preparing to serve as expert witnesses in legal settings.

The authors of the paper are Mihir Godbole, Hayden Harsh, Joshua Martin, Aakash Garg, Edgar Rojas-Munoz, Laurie Charles, Stacey Mitchell and Dr. Jinsil Hwaryoung Seo.

We congratulate the research team on this achievement and look forward to presenting the work at HCI International 2026.
