Do Won Kim

I am a 1st year Ph.D. student in Information Studies at University of Maryland.
I am advised by Giovanni Luca Ciampaglia and Cody Buntain.

My research interests lie at the intersection of computational social science and political science, with a focus on understanding the complex interplay between human-algorithm feedback loops.
I investigate how social media algorithms shape users’ exposure to diverse political content and how this, in turn, influences their political attitudes and behaviors. By leveraging computational methods and causal inference techniques, I aim to disentagle this reciprocal relationship.
