Members - Computational social science at Centre Marc Bloch

Current members

Camille Roth

Faculty / CNRS

Camille is tenured full research scientist at CNRS in computer science after having been Associate Professor in sociology at Sciences Po Paris. His research focuses on the description and modeling of socio-semantic systems, in particular the digital public space and scientific communities, using Social Network Analysis and Natural Language Processing. He founded the team in 2012.

Telmo Menezes

Postdoc / CNRS

Telmo is specialized in Artificial Intelligence and its applications to the Social Sciences. He is broadly interested in the interplay between human and artificial intelligence in the digital public space. His research is currently focused on representations of knowledge for claim and belief propagation analysis.

Jérémie Poiroux

PhD student / CNRS

PhD student in sociology at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (Paris) and at Centre Marc Bloch (Berlin), Jérémie studies the design and the impacts of algorithms in organisations.

Katrin Herms

PhD student / CNRS

Katrin pursues an interdisciplinary PhD project in sociology linking social network analysis of polarized Internet communities with face-to-face Interviews. Her main interests are discourse analysis and social dynamics emerging around political issues in France and Germany.

Lena Mangold

PhD student / CNRS

With a background in mathematics and data science, Lena is a PhD student researching socio-semantic clusters in online conversations. Her work will focus on describing the nature of such clusters, the dynamics that lead to their emergence and stability, as well as their meta-level configurations.

Myriam Boualami

PhD student / CMB

A Master's degree graduate in Geography – Spatial Analysis – Epistemology of Social Sciences, Myriam Boualami begins her research on the digitalization of the music industry, through a lens that focuses on the audiences' behaviors. She works with geolocated digital footprints, and is interested in their uses and limits in the field of human geography.

Manuel Tonneau

Research engineer / CNRS

With a background in economics and statistics, Manuel then acquired a machine learning skillset. He will combine stance detection methods and network analysis in an empirical study of echo chambers on Twitter.

Govind Gandhi

Master Student / IISER Pune

Govind is a physics major interested in network theory and AI. He is focusing on extending a framework to describe the evolution of socio-semantic networks over time, using local rules.

Adèle Derosereuil

Master Student / Paris-Dauphine

Adèle works as a trainee in both administration and research fields for six months at the Centre Marc Bloch. In the research part of her internship, she focuses on developing face to face interviews with Twitter users, thanks to the support of Katrin Herms and Camille Roth.

Romain Avouac

Administrateur de l'INSEE in training

Romain works as a trainee public statistician at the French statistical institute. As a research assistant for a year at the CMB, he focuses on developing NLP approaches that go beyond classical distributional approaches in order to better assess the semantic similarity between actors' online positions.

Titouan Morvan

Master Student / ENS Lyon

Titouan is a mathematics student specializing in statistics and machine learning. He will work on semantic hypergraphs with applications to debates on climate and energy policies.
