Political Communication
An introduction to how political actors, media institutions, platforms, and audiences jointly shape public attention, meaning, and political behavior.
Teaching
Seeing the systems behind political communication.
My courses help students connect foundational theories to contemporary media and AI—while learning to distinguish persuasive stories about technology from what evidence can actually establish.
Media Storms, Viral Moments, and Moral Panics
When everyone is talking about the same thing: a research seminar on collective attention, sudden issue prominence, amplification, and social disruption.
Academic Writing in the Age of AI
Writing, reasoning, evidence, and scholarly voice in a research environment transformed by generative artificial intelligence.
Advising
Student research
I welcome conversations with students interested in political communication, collective attention, computational text analysis, and AI’s social and political consequences.
Previous supervision includes an MA thesis in Political Science at the University of Zurich.
