Hi!
Hope Schroeder here. I’m a PhD student at the MIT Center for Constructive Communication. I’m interested in how language technologies can help us investigate social phenomena and facilitate communication on major challenges in the world today.
Get in touch if you want to talk about NLP, facilitated dialogue, AI in social research, or unique methods of understanding the media ecosystem.
Recent updates (5/2025):
I appeared at a symposium on AI in Social Science at APS 2025 in Washington DC with Nat Rabb, Tom Costello, and Ilia Sucholutsky!
I shared three pieces of accepted work at CHI 2025:
Some older updates:
Before coming to MIT, I was a pre-doctoral fellow at Stanford Law School working with Professor Julian Nyarko on applications of NLP methods for legal and policy questions. Before that, I graduated with an MSc in Social Data Science (Distinction) at the Oxford Internet Institute as a Clarendon Scholar at Christ Church. I was a 2019 graduate of Stanford in Symbolic Systems with honors.
Before getting into data science, I worked on projects using VR & AR to document and reimagine contested areas of public space. Our Magic Grant project on a contested plaque site at Stanford received global press. A case study on this work received the Best Case Study Award at CHI 2023!
