To\u00a0enhance reliability in the increasingly volatile and vulnerable electricity grid, her research will address two specific challenges: giving devices that are controlled by the electric power utility the ability to automatically infer, predict and respond to\u00a0power disturbances, and secondly, designing trustworthy energy markets that incentivize power producers and consumers to provide grid support during congestion or fault conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xmsonormal\"><b>Jennifer Pybus<\/b>, who will join York in January 2021 as an assistant professor in the Faculty of Liberal Arts &amp; Professional Studies, has been awarded a Tier 2 CRC in Data, Democracy and AI.

Her work focuses on the political economy of social media platforms, display ad economies, and the rise of third parties embedded in the mobile ecosystem which are facilitating algorithmic profiling, monetization, polarization and bias. Her research contributes to an emerging field, mapping out datafication, a process that is rendering our social, cultural and political lives into productive data for machine learning and algorithmic decision-making. Pybus has cultivated strong European links with public organizations and will use her chair to engage Canadians with innovative tools, resources and pedagogy for increasing critical data literacy and democratic debate about artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n<h3>The renewed Canada Research Chairs<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_242980\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-242980\" class=\"size-full wp-image-242980\" src=\"https:\/\/yfile.news.yorku.ca\/files\/2017\/05\/deb-mcgregor.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"255\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-242980\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Deborah McGregor<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><b>Deborah McGregor<\/b>, cross-appointed with Osgoode Hall Law School and the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change, has received a renewal of her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chairs-chaires.gc.ca\/chairholders-titulaires\/profile-eng.aspx?profileId=3453\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\">CRC in Indigenous Environmental Justice<\/a>.
