Jana is a PostDoc at the Computational Social Science lab at Graz University of Technology and the Complexity Science Hub Vienna. Drawing from her experience in nonlinear dynamical systems, her current research activity centres around emergent phenomena in complex social systems. She employs methods from machine learning, data science and computational modelling to understand a diverse range of topics, from emotion dynamics to the spread of diseases and misinformation in the field of Computational Social Science. Next to her research she cares deeply about how the scientific community functions and dysfunctions. She tries to improve reproducibility and transparency of research by being an outspoken and active proponent of Open Science practices.
