Research

computational social science, natural language processing, social data science, social media mining

Interests

My research lies in the intersection between Computational Social Science and Natural Language Processing (NLP). I'm broadly interested in furthering NLP methods for mining social media and online data, as well as in furthering our understanding of human behaviour through the study of social media. My recent research has a particular focus on tackling problematic issues on the Web and social media that can have a damaging effect on individuals or society at large, such as hate speech, misinformation, inequality, biases and other forms of online harm.
