Elisa Omodei

I’m very happy to share that, as of today, I am a tenured Associate Professor at @ceu-dnds.bsky.social. Getting there has been a collective effort, so I owe a big thanks to all my past and present collaborators. I can’t wait to continue working with you all & for all the new collaborations to come.

DNDS at #IC2S2 2025 in Sweden

A strong presence at the top conference in computational social science!

10+ talks and posters by current & former members on networks, behavior, inequality and digital society.

Hi Anita, sure! Júlia Számely is also around and happy to discuss.

How (under) represented are African and Africa-based scholars in the African Politics field? To find out, come check out Zack Zimbalist's presentation of our joint work this afternoon at the Science of Science I session at #IC2S2 (De Geerhallen room - circa 15:45)

Can LLMs be used to persuade people to disfavor authoritarian strategies? If you are at #ic2s2, stop by Júlia Számely's poster today to learn about our work in progress with @tomcostello.bsky.social & @dgrand.bsky.social

At #ic2s2 and interested in how our information & social media diet and social circle composition are associated with our perception of minorities? Stop by @claraeminente.bsky.social’s poster today to learn about our ongoing work with M Galesic, H Olsson, L Nedelkoska & R Prieto-Curiel

Migration is shaping the future of our societies — but how can research help shape migration policy?
Last week, the #HumanMigration research group led by @rafaelprietocuriel.bsky.social hosted a three-part event series at the Complexity Science Hub to explore this pressing question.
