Claire Cardie
Claire Cardie researches how computers understand and generate language, while helping build research and education programs in information science. Cardie researches natural language processing, including information extraction, text summarization and language models for understanding and generation. These tasks connect the contents of documents with computational representations and useful outputs. She served as the inaugural associate dean for education in Cornell’s Bowers College of Computing and Information Science from 2020 to 2026. This role followed her earlier work building information-science programs.
