Patricia Rossini (Ph.D., 2017, Federal University of Minas Gerais) is a Senior Lecturer in Communication, Media & Democracy at the University of Glasgow. Broadly speaking, Patricia studies the interplay between political communication and technologies, with a focus on digital threats to democracy -- specifically, uncivil and intolerant online discourse, disinformation, (dark) participation, democratic backsliding, and online campaigns. Her research has been funded by social media companies such as Google, Meta, and Twitter; the British Academy, and the Knight Foundation (USA).
