Dr. Michael Miller Yoder is a postdoctoral researcher at the Collaboratory Against Hate and the Center for Informed Democracy and Social Cybersecurity at Carnegie Mellon University. His research focuses on computational approaches to countering hate and extremism, such as automated hate speech detection and network analysis of social media data. With colleagues at the Collaboratory Against Hate, he also investigates how academic research can best support the work of practitioners working against hate and extremism.
Before working with the Collaboratory Against Hate, he completed a Ph.D. at the Language Technologies Institute in Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Computer Science.
To me, Eradicate Hate was the most important gathering of 2021 for those of us who work on issues related to domestic extremism and organized hate. The Summit uniquely combined a variety of perspectives, including experts, civil society representatives, politicians and policymakers, and the families and loved ones of victims. Eradicate Hate has the important mission of standing against the rising tide of hate and extremism in our society, and it’s an honor to be able to support this mission.
