At FUSE Labs we are dedicated to both basic and applied research exploring social experiences that enable users to create, connect, and collaborate with the people, information, and ideas that matter to them. Recent research explores questions around social search, interest networking, online community engagement, and civic media. In our research efforts we actively seek to collaborate with leading academic, government, and industry researchers to advance the state of the art in new social experiences.
