Member of the Everyday Media Lab

Junyi (Victor) Han joined IWM since October 2022 as a research associate and PhD student at the IWM in the Everyday Media lab. His research interests mainly focus on adapting computational methods in science communication and political communication studies, to disentangle interactions among science communicators, the public, and non-human agents (social bots) in science communication and to examine the potential influence of social bots on generating/mitigating polarization. He is also interested in agenda-setting theory and social network analysis.

Junyi (Victor) Han studied Communication (B.A.) at University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) from 2015 to 2019.
