Biography
Marijn Keijzer is a sociologist whose research interests lie in the intersection of computational social science, network science, mathematical sociology, and political science. He uses agent-based modeling, survey methods and experiments to study the emergence of polarization in online social media, micro-macro transitions in opinion dynamics and social trust. Before moving to the IAST, he received his PhD in Sociology (cum laude) from the University of Groningen and was attached to the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology as a postdoctoral researcher.
