Lucius is a PhD Candidate at the NYU Center for Data Science advised by Julia Stoyanovich as part of the Center for Responsible AI and working closely with Joshua Loftus at the London School of Economics. His research focuses on the intersection between responsible data science, causal inference, and inequality—looking at statistical aspects of inequality problems, the modeling of social categories, and techniques that can aid in the responsible and transparent use and analysis of data. His research is generously supported by the Microsoft Research PhD Fellowship.
