Jaigris Hodson is the Canada Research Chair in Digital Misinformation, Polarization, and Anti-Social Media. Their research takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding how the technologies we use to communicate heighten our vulnerabilities to misinformation, polarization, and other on- and offline anti-social behaviors.

Hodson uses novel, field-building approaches to map the relationships between polarization, misinformation, and online harassment, and to facilitate democratic communication.
