He also sits on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Responsible Technology.

Dr. Iliadis' work focuses on the social implications of data science with specific interests in semantic computing (things like metadata, web schemas, knowledge graphs, applied ontologies) and embodied computing (things like wearables, embeddables, ingestibles, implantables). He conducts interviews with engineers and users, archival research, and comparative analyses of digital tools and methods for data sharing.

Dr. Iliadis maintains an active research agenda and has work published in or forthcoming from New Media & Society, Communication Theory, Global Media and Communication, International Review of Information Ethics, Big Data & Society, Philosophy & Technology, Journal of Information, Communication and Ethics in Society, and Online Information Review, among others. He has provided media commentary and is available for interviews and consultations.
