Joe Higton

Hello! I am a first year PhD student in Politics at New York University. My research concerns a) how people make inferences from their immediate environment to the wider world, b) the implications this has for political strategy, and c) the use of machine learning to measure various difficult concepts in political science.

I have a BA in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the University of Oxford and an MSc in Social Research Methods from LSE. Before starting my PhD I worked as a communications consultant and later as an analyst for the UK Civil Service. You can email me at joe.higton@nyu.edu and look at my cv here.
