The researcher Wienke Strathern has attended the International Conference on Web and Social Media (ICWSM) Virtual Conference that took place from June 8th to June 11th. Prof. Dr. Pfeffer was part of the steering committee.

The conference is relevant to the research project as it is a forum where researchers from different disciplines can discuss and exchange ideas on research between social science and computational methods in order to answer challenging questions about the development of human behavior on social media.

ICWSM is a singularly fitting venue for research that blends social science and computational approaches to answer important and challenging questions about human social behavior through social media while advancing computational tools for vast and unstructured data.
