Emily Grabowski

Senior Data Science Fellow, Senior Instructor, Senior Consultant
Linguistics

I am a Ph.D. student in Linguistics. My research interests include understanding how our speech production and speech perception systems constrain linguistic variation, especially as it applies to the larynx. I am also interested in integrating theoretical representations of language with speech. I approach this using a broad variety of tools/methodologies, including theoretical work, experiments, and modeling. Current projects include developing a computational tool to expedite the analysis of pitch and an online perception experiment on the relationship between pitch and perceived...

Hellina Hailu Nigatu

Data Science for Social Justice Senior Fellow 2024
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS)

I am a PhD student at UC Berkeley in the EECS department co-advised by Prof. Sarah Chasins and Prof. John Canny. My research interest broadly lies in the intersection of AI and HCI, with a focus on making usable AI tools accessible to end users.

I am currently looking into making NLP tools usable and accessible for low-resourced languages. I am also interested in the impact of AI on society, specifically in how it affects Global Majority countries and communities. Outside of research, I like to read books, make and drink traditional Ethiopian coffee, knit,...
