VIGILANT Highlighted in CORDIS Podcast on Cyber Disinformation

VIGILANT was featured in a new CORDIS podcast by the Publications Office of the European Union, exploring how EU-funded research is addressing the growing threat of online disinformation.

Professor Owen Conlan of Trinity College Dublin discusses VIGILANT’s work on giving users more control over personalised, AI-driven systems. This approach supports both citizens and police authorities in detecting and resisting manipulation online.

The podcast also looks at broader challenges such as disinformation in low-resource languages, the role of search engines, and the risks of algorithmic bias. VIGILANT contributes to these discussions by developing tools that increase transparency and accountability in digital environments. Listen to the full episode on the CORDIS website.
