Ida Larsen-Ledet
Work Practice Researcher
About
I work in the Collaborative Intelligence (opens in new tab) theme in Microsoft Research Cambridge (opens in new tab) where I conduct research on the interplay between collaborative practices and technological mediation, with a focus on knowledge work. I’m currently part of Project Alexandria (opens in new tab), an ambitious project to use machine learning create organizational knowledge bases from automatically extracted knowledge (opens in new tab). It’s very exciting to be part of an interdisciplinary project where I get to work closely with designers and machine learning researchers to apply the things I learn from my qualitative research into people’s work practices.
Previously, I was part of the Computer-Mediated Activity (opens in new tab) research group (now Collaboration and Computer-Human Interaction) at Aarhus University, where I also did my master’s in computer science and cognitive semiotics.
