Rachel E. Moran, Postdoctoral Fellow

Rachel’s research explores the role of trust in digital information environments and is particularly concerned with how trust is implicated in the spread of mis- and disinformation. Her work is interdisciplinary, drawing on theory and methods from journalism studies, communication, information science and STS. At the CIP, she is exploring how individuals build information and media diets when they distrust traditional knowledge institutions such as journalism and academia.
