Goran Glavaš (/gorʌn glavʌʃ/)

I am a Professor at the University of Würzburg, holding the Chair for for Natural Language Processing (Informatik XII) at the Faculty of Mathematics & Computer Science, and a member of the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (CAIDAS). My main interests are in computational semantics and multilingual & low-resource representation learning. I also work toward democratization of language technologies: fair and sustainable NLP as well as NLP applications in social sciences and humanities.

Previously I worked as an Assistant Professor at the University of Mannheim, Data and Web Science Group (Sep 17 to Sep 21) and Interim Associate Professor at the LMU Munich, Center for Information and Language Processing (Oct 21 to Mar 22). Before that I was a researcher at the Text Analysis and Knowledge Engineering Lab, University of Zagreb, where I completed my doctorate in 2014 under the supervision of Jan Šnajder.
