Academic Achievements
  • Research projects include comparing the value of perceived human versus AI-generated empathy, exploring human and AI emotional support through reframing of negative situations, and studying emotion regulation contagion driving reduction in negative intergroup emotions.
Research Experience
  • Leads a team of social scientists whose work aims to integrate theories from psychology, complex systems, cognitive science, and philosophy, using a mix of experimental work, big data analysis, computational modeling, and AI.
Background
  • Research interests include social behavior (interactions between people or between people and machines), especially examined through the lens of affective processes such as emotions and well-being. The aim is to understand what measures can be taken to predict and change how people feel, particularly aiming for large-scale changes across large groups of people. Special attention is paid to how technologies like large language models and digital media play a role in eliciting unhelpful emotions and whether they can be used to help manage those emotions.
Miscellany
  • Lab's code is available on their GitHub.
