Students
Jérémie Poiroux
PhD student / CNRS
Currently PhD student in sociology at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (Paris) and at Centre Marc Bloch (Berlin), he study the design and impact of algorithms in the organisations.
Katrin Herms
PhD student / CNRS

Jonathan St-Onge
PhD student / CNRS
A former philosopher of science and cognitive scientist, Jonathan St-Onge now purses a PhD in computational social science. His research focuses on the structure and dynamics of socio-semantic systems in digital niches using a mix of network theory, probabilistic programming, and natural language processing.
Dougal Shakespeare
PhD student / RECORDS
PhD student researching the role of algorithmic guidance on music streaming platforms as part of the ANR-funded project, RECORDS. His research focuses on exploring differentiations between algorithmic and organic music consumption behaviours, tracing the degree to which commonly deployed filtering algorithms may expand or rather, constrain the diversity of one's music preference.
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.
Jonas Stein
Master‘s student / Utrecht University
Jonas studies Sociology and Social Research with a focus on agent-based simulation and social network analysis. He is interested in how diverse communities impact individual and group outcomes. For his research project at CMB, Jonas analyzes user confinement in Twitter networks.
