Hi everyone,

I hope you all have a good start of the week! This Friday (15/01) we will have the first Online Hot Politics Lab meeting of 2021. In this session Ursula Daxecker (University of Amsterdam) will present the project: "How Hostile Misinformation Shapes Beliefs and Attitudes: A Pre-Analysis Plan for a Survey Experiment in India" (co-authored by Hanne Fjelde, Uppsala University & Peace Research Institute Oslo). Below a short bio of Ursula.

Ursula Daxecker is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Amsterdam. Her research focuses on elections and conflict. From 2020-2025, she is working on the project Elections, Violence, and Parties funded by the European Research Council. Her research has previously been funded by the Dutch Science Foundation (NWO), the European Commission's Marie Curie Actions, and the U.S. Department of Defense Minerva Research Initiative. She is the guest editor (with Kristine Höglund and Sarah Birch) of the 2020 Special Issue "Electoral Violence" in Journal of Peace Research.

The meeting will start at 15:00 (3 pm CET) until 16:00. The talk will be followed by a Q&A, and everybody is welcome to join via Zoom: https://uva-live.zoom.us/j/96492065253https://eur04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fuva-live.zoom.us%2Fj%2F96492065253&data=04%7C01%7Cm.d.homan%40uva.nl%7Cf932c4fc224f44fb312f08d8b155190a%7Ca0f1cacd618c4403b94576fb3d6874e5%7C1%7C0%7C637454326361213915%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=ln%2F3qOthDgs%2Famkcr4cHFpKoKNIfhWjfcvpjJKNHP2g%3D&reserved=0.
