James Curley
Associate Professor, Psychology Department, University of Texas at Austin (2017-). Formerly, Assistant Professor, Psychology Department, Columbia University (2012-2017), Research Associate, Columbia University (2007-2012), Post-doctoral Researcher, Sub-Department of Animal Behavior, University of Cambridge (2003-2007), PhD, Sub-Department of Animal Behavior, University of Cambridge (1999-2003).
My current research interests are the neurobiological basis of social behavior in groups, as well as the long-term plastic changes in the brain and peripheral physiology that occur as a consequence of social experience. I am also interested in statistical methods for the study of social hierarchies and networks.
David De Roure
David De Roure is Professor of e-Research at University of Oxford and Director of the Oxford e-Research Centre. He is a Strategic Advisor to the Economic and Social Research Council in the area of Social Media Data. Working on the intersection of humanities, social science, and computer science, David conducts research on social machines, computational musicology, large scale sociotechnical systems, cyber security and social computing.
