Grants to this Grantee
for a project using crowdsourcing to identify misinformation online
This gift to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology will support research to develop crowdsourcing techniques to effectively identify false and misleading news articles. The results will then be used to write and publish scientific papers that inform the greater community and help improve product design in social media.
