The Digital Communication Methods Lab is located at the Amsterdam School of Communication Research, part of the University of Amsterdam. The lab brings together existing and new projects with digital communication methods as its cornerstone. The lab aims at expanding innovative work on methods, analyses, and scientific practices critical to Communication Science, including work on mobile communication and AI, not only as research topics, but also as data collection modes.
The lab has over 80 members working both at the Amsterdam School of Communication Research and at other institutes. Members include starting PhD candidates to senior researchers. They come together regularly to discuss their work and develop their skills using and studying digital research methods. The lab hosts workshops on various topics, for example, on general programming skills, agent-based modeling or using Virtual Reality for research. Furthermore, the lab is involved in the bachelor and master programs in communication science at the University of Amsterdam and contributes to course development.
