She examines how marginality is experienced, enacted, facilitated, or disrupted in and as mediated through sociotechnical systems. Andalibi’s scholarship informs theory, design, and policy for socio-technical futures that foreground marginalized individuals’ values and needs to support qualities such as wellbeing, privacy, ethics, and justice. Her research spans the implications of technologies like social media as well as emerging technologies such as emotion AI.
