Ep.51: Using Interdisciplinarity to Tackle Audio Deepfakes

On today's episode I speak with two talented undergraduate researchers associated with the ongoing NSF-funded EAGER award led by Drs. Christine Mallinson and Vandana Janeja of UMBC.

Kiffy Nwosu is an undergraduate computer science student from Maryland who has worked as a researcher at UMBC since high school, and is now a student at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Chloe Evered, originally of Houston, Texas, is a recent graduate of the Georgetown University department of linguistics with a minor in Chinese. Chloe is now pursuing a master’s degree in linguistics, also at Georgetown.

On today's Campus Connection, we hear about the work of Dr. Jennifer Maher, Associate Professor of English at UMBC.
