Dr Lise Jaillant is a Reader (Associate Professor) in Digital Cultural Heritage at Loughborough University.
Lise has a background in publishing history and digital humanities. She is an expert on born-digital archives and the issues of preservation and access to these archives. Since 2020, she has been UK PI for four AHRC-funded projects on Archives and Artificial Intelligence. These international projects aim to make digitised and born-digital archives more accessible to researchers, and to use innovative research methods such as AI to analyse archival data.
