Prof Advaith Siddharthan

Professor of Computer Science and Society

I am a computer scientist specialising in Computational Linguistics. My research intersects Citizen Science, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Science, facilitating societal access to information by (i) mining, simplifying and summarising complex texts and (ii) communicating data through language. I develop socially responsible AI technologies that bridge the divide between professional scientists and lay public, facilitate meaningful public engagement with science and foster attitudinal
and behavioural change, particularly around biodiversity issues.
