WIRED2015 Innovation Fellow Elizabeth Stokoe on the science of conversation


Elizabeth Stokoe is a scientist of conversations.  She studies how and why you speak differently in different contexts -- from first dates to police interrogations.

Stokoe is Professor of Social Interaction in the Department of Social Sciences at Loughborough University. Outside the university, she runs workshops with mediators, doctors, police and other professionals using her research-based communication training method called the "Conversation Analytic Role-play Method". 

She is one of thirteen WIRED2015 Innovation Fellows who will be speaking on the Main Stage at our flagship event, WIRED2015 on October 15-16.
