Dr. Daniel Miehling is a computational social scientist and Visiting Assistant Professor at Indiana University Bloomington, affiliated with the Borns Jewish Studies Program and the Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism (ISCA). He holds a Ph.D. in General Linguistics from the Technical University of Berlin, where he specialized in online antisemitism and digital hate speech. His interdisciplinary work bridges Jewish Studies and computational linguistics, focusing on the dissemination of antisemitism and misinformation, political polarization and conspiracy narratives across digital platforms.

He is the author of Online-Antisemitismus verstehen: Hassrede im Web 2.0 (Understanding Online Antisemitism: Hate Speech in Web 2.0, Nomos 2024), and has published in academic journals on antisemitic discourse and social media analysis. Enriching the study of contemporary antisemitism with new methodologies to detect and analyze antisemitic and polarizing content online, he is also developing educational tools that empower students to engage critically with real-world data and the ethical implications of AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP) in social science.
