Senior🎓
Top SchoolBodo Winter is a data-driven linguist and entrepreneur who combines academic leadership with applied consultancy to study how people communicate numbers across language, graphs, and multimodal cues. As a UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and Professor of Linguistics at the University of Birmingham, he leads the "Making numbers meaningful" project and is scaling his team with interdisciplinary hires in computer science and psychology. Co-founder of Lingsight, he translates experimental and computational methods into real-world insight for how numerical information is presented and interpreted. With a PhD in cognitive and information sciences and over a decade of research experience at institutions from Max Planck to UC Merced, he bridges rigorous theory, data science, and communicative design. An aspect that often surprises collaborators is his habitual framing of numerical communication problems as joint human–machine inference tasks, highlighting practical implications for visualization and automated messaging.
