DrJessica Matheus de Souza

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the School of Geography, University College Dublin (UCD), serving as a Data Scientist for the ERC project "Flexible Work, Rigid Politics" (WorkPoliticsBIP), where my research examines the societal impact of technology, platformization, and digital labor. My academic background includes a PhD in Political Sociology, with a concentration on electoral behavior, public opinion, and Brazilian politics. My expertise lies in quantitative methodologies, specializing in public opinion surveys and the computational analysis of social media data using R. Through this intersection of data analytics and social inquiry, I study how digital platforms and technological shifts influence democratic engagement, social behavior, and the evolution of contemporary societal values.
