The Digital Interests Lab is a research collaborative that explores public accountability for emerging data technology. We ask questions about the role of computing in society through empirical investigations, creative expression, and community engagement. 

Based at New York University (NYU), the Digital Interests Lab fosters interdisciplinary scholarship and is committed to rigorous scholarship and promoting early career scholars. The Lab is funded in part by the National Science Foundation, New America, and Microsoft Foundation. The Lab Director, Dr. Anne L. Washington founded the lab in 2018 with her NSF Career grant. 

The Lab is actively looking for two PostDoctoral Fellows.

Learn more about who we are, what we are about, and how to talk to us. 

Centered on human empowerment, informed by history, guided by theory, this is tech policy research for the rest of us.
