You can read about my doctoral research here. I am involved in several projects, including on paramilitary-styled assaults in Northern Ireland, geo-political orientations in the former-Soviet world, and conflict prediction. You can read more about the projects below. If you would like more information, do not hesitate to email me. You can also read about my attempts at collection data that I never used here.
