Salma S. Abdel Magid

I am a postdoctoral scholar in Computer Science at Princeton University, working with Dr. Olga Russakovsky in the Princeton Visual AI Lab. I am also a Princeton Presidential Postdoctoral Fellow through the Office of the Dean of Faculty and a Future Values Fellow through the University Center for Human Values.

My research focuses on the safety and responsibility of generative systems. I study the harms they cause, such as bias, misuse, and manipulation, while investigating and developing new technical tools and frameworks to mitigate them. I’m always excited to collaborate across disciplines. Please feel free to reach out!

I completed my Ph.D. at Harvard University under the supervision of Dr. Hanspeter Pfister in the Harvard Visual Computing Group. I received the Siebel Scholarship and Harvard University Graduate Prize Fellowship. Previously, I have interned with Adobe Research and earned my B.S. and M.S. from Santa Clara University, where I was advised by Dr. Behnam Dezfouli in the Internet of Things Research Lab.
