Hi, I’m Jenny Long.

I am currently a PhD candidate at the University of Edinburgh, affiliated with the VisHub Lab under the supervision of Dr. Uta Hinrichs and Dr. Tara Capel. My research focuses on questioning the data visualization design process and critique through a feminist and intersectional lens, using design as a research method.

Prior to my PhD, I worked as a Digital Research Ambassador at the Digital Research Services. I hold an MA in Design Informatics and a BA in Fine Arts. My master’s project, ‘A Spring Ahead,’ was recognized as the Best Small Data-Driven Project in the CDCS Digital Research Prize.
