Studies how culture evolves as a collaborative process influenced by both social interactions and intelligent algorithms. In his research, he uses different methods, including dynamical systems modeling, natural language processing, as well as network science, which he studied during his Ph.D. in physics.
Erin Isbilen – Psycholinguistics
