Abbey Stemler is an Associate Professor and Weimer Faculty Fellow in the Department of Business Law and Ethics at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. She is a leading scholar on the regulation of the sharing economy and platform-based businesses and has published widely, including in top law journals such as the Iowa Law Review, Emory Law Journal, and Harvard Journal on Legislation. She is frequently sought out for her expertise by lawmakers, intergovernmental organizations, and media outlets.
Her research explores the spaces where law has yet to catch up with technology. In particular, her aim is to expose the evolving realities of Internet-based "innovations" and find ways to effectively regulate them without hindering their beneficial uses. As she sees it, many modern firms inhabit a world that operates under alien physics-where free is often costly and "smart" is not always wise. In her research, she employs tools and insights from economics, behavioral science, regulatory theory, and rhetoric to understand how society can better protect consumers, privacy, and democracy.
Professor Stemler is nationally recognized for her scholarship, teaching, and service and is the recipient of multiple awards including the Academy of Legal Studies in Business's Outstanding Early Career Achievement Award, Indiana University's Outstanding Junior Faculty Award, and the Jerry S. Cohen Award for Antitrust Scholarship. She is also a practicing attorney, entrepreneur, and founding member and chair of Indiana University's Queer Philanthropy Circle, the first circle of its kind to crowdfund and support queer students, faculty, and alumni in higher education.
BKC Faculty Associate Abbey Stemler was interviewed about TikTok's legal liability for failing to protect children from inappropriate content.

Afsaneh Rigot is a researcher with years of experience covering law, technology, LGBTQ, refugee, and human rights issues.
Currently, she works with ARTICLE 19 on the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regional issues. She is also a 2021-2022 fellow with the Technology and Public Purpose (TAPP) at the Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs. During her TAPP fellowship, Afsaneh will further develop her methodology and concept using experiences and knowledge in implementing company change with those most impacted-centered. She looks to redefine how we design our major communication tools through, what she calls "designing from the margins": a methodology requiring a departure from structures and design processes that focus on the "main use cases."
Based on her Berkman Klein Centre (BKC) fellowship project (2019-2020), Afsaneh continues the work and research she designed and led on security issues for LGBTQ communities who use dating apps and social media tools in the MENA region. Her research at BKC focuses on how these apps are used for evidence-gathering by state actors targeting LGBTQ groups. Afsaneh is exploring the admissibility of evidence within the prosecution process, researching which evidence gathered through apps becomes the most detrimental to users, resulting in charges brought against them. Through understanding these patterns in courts, the goal of her research is to identify ways of mitigating these risks for LGBTQ individuals, increasing acquittal rates, supporting legal teams, and ascertaining (and advocating on) what changes apps need to make to better protect vulnerable users.
