It consists of a core set of researchers, complemented by research associates across MSU as well as other U.S. and international universities and research centers. Professor Johannes M. Bauer was appointed as Director of the Quello Center in 2019. Current projects range across local, state, national and global levels, including research on digital entrepreneurship and innovation, broadband and next-generation Internet connectivity, digital exclusion and inclusion, misinformation and disinformation in a dynamic online environment, and the effects of digital technology on education, incomes, and economic development.
