HAIL Graduate Awardees Spotlight: Rose Gatfield-Jeffries

Kicking off our HAIL Graduate Awardees Spotlight Series, we have Rose Gatfield-Jeffries (she/her) from the History and Philosophy of Science Department within the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences. Gatfield-Jeffries, who has spent three years at Pitt and is beginning her dissertation, is interested in the use of AI in scientific research. Specifically, she uses epistemological (differentiating between justified belief or opinion) and ethical lenses when analyzing this use.
