Personal profile
Short presentation
I am a Full Professor and Deputy Head of Department for Research at Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen. I also head the Copenhagen Natural Language Understanding research group, and co-lead the Danish Pioneer Centre for Artificial Intelligence. My main research interests are fair and accountable NLP, including challenges such as explainability, factuality and bias detection. Prior to starting a faculty position, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the UCL Machine Reading group, and I hold a PhD from the University of Sheffield. In October 2022, I became Denmark’s youngest ever female full professor. I currently hold a prestigious ERC Starting Grant on 'Explainable and Robust Automatic Fact Checking'. My research has been recognised by a Karen Spärck Jones Award, as well as a Hartmann Diploma Prize. I am a member of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters.
