Earlier this month, @fabiennelind.bsky.social & @veronikaebner.bsky.social had insightful cross-fertilization sessions within @cidape.bsky.social about social media data on climate change, emotions, and inequalities 🌐
It’s great to see the project moving forward! 🙌

A good reminder for how we try to do things at @gpccomm.bsky.social - we're here to help! Sometimes that might mean a rejection with feedback, but our passion isn't rejection but rather, scholarship. We're proud to represent @icahdq.bsky.social =)

I'm hiring another postdoc (research-focused, for almost 5 years) for my @erc.europa.eu project on the educational cleavage!
I'm looking for someone with strong quantitative text-analysis skills (e.g. #NLP, #LLM, etc.) to study the role of political actors in cleavage formation.

For the team "Research Data & Methods" at @cais-research.bsky.social we are looking for a Ph.D. student (75%) to start on October 1st, 2025. The application deadline is August 21st: stellenangebote.cais-research.de/de?id=f50b76

New #CSS publication in Annals of the ICA! 🎉
Big congrats to first author @ahrabhikat.bsky.social ! It was a pleasure collaborating on this project. Stay tuned for more exciting work from her dissertation, building on this systematic literature review on #racism, #stereotypes, #hatespeech in text.

📢 Big news for platform researchers across Europe and beyond:

Today, the @ec.europa.eu adopted the Delegated Act for Article 40 of the Digital Services Act (DSA) – a long-anticipated milestone enabling researchers to request access to non-public platform data under Article 40.4.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Protest Update: A large police and SWAT presence, with about 15 armored vehicles and multiple officers, is gathering at Welton & 18th Streets. Although no confirmed activity is approaching our event area, this preparation suggests authorities might expect larger gatherings.#ICA25
