Áine Poland holds a PhD in History from Queen’s University Belfast and is a postdoctoral researcher at the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH). Her research interests lie in women’s and gender history, transnational history, the history of emotions, historical social network analysis and digital methods.

Within Impresso, Áine leads a case study on the discoverability of nineteenth-century historical figures in digitised newspapers, examining how gender, naming conventions and titles shape who is visible in the press and in the tools used to search it. She also tests the Impresso web app and Datalab and contributes to the project’s dissemination efforts.
