Turing Fellowships for Social Sciences academics
Professor Ho-Yin Mak, Associate Professor in Management Science at the Saïd Business School and Professor Scott Hale, Associate Professor and Senior Research Fellow at the Oxford Internet Institute, have been announced by The Alan Turing Institute in a list of 400 Fellows chosen from across 13 partner institutions as established scholars with proven research excellence in data science, artificial intelligence, or a related field.
Professor Hale commented 'I’m delighted to be continuing my association with The Alan Turing Institute as a Turing Fellow. The most pressing problems in our society such as the spread of misinformation and hateful content require multidisciplinary collaboration across institutions; so, I look forward to working on these challenges in partnership with collaborators at Turing and beyond.'
Professor Mak adds 'being a part of the Turing network is a true delight, I am honoured to have received this fellowship and look forward to leveraging the Turing platform to strengthen the ties between business research with data science & AI.'
During their 12-month Fellowship the researchers chosen contribute to new ideas, drive collaborative projects that deliver impact, and help to grow the institute’s research capacity and its diverse network of partner organisations.
Turing Institute Director and Chief Executive Adrian Smith said, “It gives me great pleasure to welcome this new group of Fellows. This cohort is incredibly multidisciplinary and diverse. They will bring a rich range of expertise and ensure we continue to do world-leading, impactful research.”
