I'm absolutely thrilled to have been awarded a prestigious ERC Starting Grant on 'Explainable and Robust Automatic Fact Checking (ExplainYourself)'!
Official press release: https://erc.europa.eu/news/erc-2021-starting-grants-results
More about the project & how to join the team: http://www.copenlu.com/talk/2022_11_erc/

This wouldn't have been possible without the great work of my PhD students & postdocs in CopeNLU (especially @pepa @dustin) which this project builds on.
