DescriptionProfessional investigators in fields like journalism, law enforcement, and human rights have long relied on public tips. But increasingly, amateur sleuths are launching their own online investigations with serious consequences. My lab designs social technologies that support effective, ethical investigations by combining the complementary strengths of crowdsourcing, experts, and AI.
