Combining History With Data Science
PhD historian specializing in Russia. Former Visiting Fellow at Harvard’s Davis Center.
About
I am a historian exploring how data science can unlock new perspectives on Russia’s past and present. I am currently interested in the ways history is used as a tool of politics and propaganda. By combining historical inquiry with methods such as text mining and computational analysis in R and Python, I examine how the past shapes power and influence. My latest project applies data science to study Russia’s politics of memory toward Poland and Ukraine (1999–2022).
I hold a PhD from the Institute of History at the Polish Academy of Sciences. I have been a Visiting Fellow at Harvard University’s Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies.
I currently work at the Mieroszewski Centre and reside in Brussels.
