Welcome!
Hi! I am a first-year PhD student at the Institute of Political Studies at Charles University, Prague.
I generally specialize in Computational Political Science and apply NLP and (Bayesian) statistical modelling to topics in international cooperation and political behavior.
In my dissertation, I research elite political communication about international economic cooperation and the interaction of economic globalization and party politics. With my co-authors, I also research novel approaches to measuring elite politicial ideology.
