Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBernie Hogan is an Associate Professor and computational social scientist at the University of Oxford with 12+ years of experience bridging social theory, network analysis, and large-scale digital data. He specialises in methodological innovation across surveys, interviews, experiments and big-data workflows, with deep expertise in the collection, storage, retrieval and visualisation of personal social networks. His research spans how underrepresented groups and regions represent themselves online—from Wikipedia and Facebook to visual network representations that improve public health data quality—and increasingly explores the social implications of AI-generated imagery using GANs and diffusion models. Trained in sociology with a PhD from the University of Toronto and a background in computer science, he blends quantitative rigour with design-minded visualisation practices, and authored the 2023 book From Social Science to Data Science. An observer of subtle representational effects, he combines long-standing network visualisation work with cutting-edge inquiry into synthetic likenesses.
