I am an Associate Professor at Oxford Internet Institute, a Governing Body Fellow at Wolfson College, and a research affiliate at MIT Sloan School of Management.
My work lies at the intersection of computational (data science) and cognitive psychology. I study how information spreads on social media and how ties are formed on social networks. My work has been published in leading journals such as Nature, Nature Communications, PNAS, CHI proceedings, Psych Science, JPSP, and JEP:G and has been covered in major media outlets including The Washington Post, the Telegraph and the Financial Times. I have received UK Department of Science, Innovation, and Technology, Meta, Google, and British Academy.
