CCL at #ICA19 in Washington DC

06.06.2019

We have presented our newest research at ICA Preconferences and in the ICA divisions of Computational Methods, Political Communication, Journalism Studies, Environmental Communication, Visual Communication, Ethnicity and Race in Communication as well as Communication and Technology.

The Computational Communication Science-Lab was represented at International Communication Association's 69th Annual Conference in Washington DC with a total of fourteen papers/talks/posters.
Among other things, Hajo Boomgaarden and Fabienne Lind gave an inspirational introduction to young and aspiring researchers at the computational division's preconference on "Expanding Computational Communication". It was a total success!
Furthermore, we are proud to announce that Phoebe Maares, Fabienne Lind and Esther Greussing were awarded a "Top Student Paper Award" in the Jounalism Division for their study of homophily of professional reputation and gender in journalistic networks on Twitter.


We want to thank the organizers of #ICA19 for a well picked location and perfectly planned conference. We also thank the numerous anonymous reviewers who supported #ICA19 and ensured the quality of the papers presented.
Finally, we are already looking forward to #ICA20!
