Jonas Paul Schoene
Postdoctoral Scholar, Sociology
BioJonas is a computational social psychologist and a postdoctoral fellow at the Polarization and Social Change Lab. He completed his PhD at the University of Oxford, under the supervision of Prof. Brian Parkinson and Prof. Amit Goldenberg of Harvard Business School. Jonas’s research focuses on how technology, such as social media and emerging large language models, can change individual and collective emotions for better or for worse. In one line of his work, he examines how these technologies influence the expression and sharing of emotions and their subsequent impact on political behavior. In another, he explores how these technological advancements can be utilized to enhance well-being. Beyond academia, Jonas is passionate about soccer and has been a goalkeeper since he was 8 years old. He tries to foster a community among students and locals through sports.

Will Schulz
Postdoctoral Scholar, Communication
BioWill Schulz received his PhD in 2024 from the Department of Politics at Princeton University, where his doctoral research sought to resolve two seemingly contradictory facts of American politics: (1) most people hold moderate or mixed political views, and yet (2) online political discourse is (apparently) polarized. Will's work includes both research and also the development of tools for data collection and analysis to facilitate that research. In his dissertation, Will developed an original method for characterizing individuals' political speech, and for estimating preference falsification and self-censorship, using a survey experiment exploiting contemporary political catchphrases. Most recently, he is focused on developing and implementing research projects with Argyle, which is a social media research tool adapted from the open-source Mastodon platform. Currently, Will is most interested in studying why certain individuals abstain from expressing their political views online, and the role of recommendation algorithms in contributing to differences in rates of online political expression.
