The History of Hoaxlines Lab

<aside> <img src="/icons/info-alternate_blue.svg" alt="/icons/info-alternate_blue.svg" width="40px" /> Hoaxlines Lab is a project researching media manipulation and unethical efforts to influence the public. Novel Science is the larger project under which we have had the COVID Dashboard, Ukraine Dashboard, and Hoaxlines Lab. Our mission is to provide real-time alerts, translate our findings into actionable policy recommendations, and develop resources that empower the public to confront information disorder.
