Marcel's work focuses on news markets, especially from an empirical perspective. He is particularly interested in issues with cross-disciplinary implications, such as media slant, opinion diversity, and the role of digital platforms for the news industry and society at large. His research often involves methods supporting causal inference from observational data, as well as tools from computational linguistics and computer vision.
