The board of the Computational Humanities Research community consists of:
Melvin Wevers
President
Computational Historian working at the University of Amsterdam. Interested in temporality, scaling, multimodality, and the role of computational modeling in historical research.
Folgert Karsdorp
Vice-President
Senior Researcher and head of the Oral Culture research group at the Meertens Institute, Amsterdam. He likes to use computational models from fields such as Machine Learning, Cultural Evolution, and Ecology to study cultural change and to quantify cultural diversity.
Alie Lassche
Social Media & Event Officer
Postdoctoral researcher at Center for Humanities Computing, Aarhus University, with a PhD in history from Leiden University. Her research interests center around the use of computational methods to study how information travels in an early-modern society.
Barbara McGillivray
Diversity and Inclusion Officer
Lecturer in Digital Humanities and Cultural Computation at King’s College London, with a PhD in computational linguistics from the University of Pisa. Her research interests focus on computational models for language change and the analysis of historical texts.
Kristoffer Nielbo
Journal Liaison
Lucy Li
Proceedings Officer
PhD student at the University of California Berkeley’s School of Information. Her research focuses on natural language processing of social and cultural data.
Judith Brottrager
Early Career Representative
Research assistant at the Technical University of Darmstadt, completing her PhD in computational literary studies. Her research focuses on canonisation processes, quantitative literary history, and comparative computational approaches to literature.
