EMMA HOES

Welcome and thank you for your visit! I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Department of Political Science at the University of Zurich (UZH). I hold a PhD from the Department of Political and Social Sciences at the European University Institute in Florence, Italy. 


In my work, I explore how digital technologies influence the quality of our information ecosystem. I challenge alarmist views on AI and disinformation, focusing on what actions to take—and what to avoid.  


At the UZH, I am involved in the ERC-funded project PRODIGI as well as the Digital Democracy Lab.
