Diana’s work sits at the intersection of criminological and sociological research, exploring emerging biometric and data driven technologies. Her passion lies in understanding the impact of surveillance on our bodies and identities through processes of technologically mediated suspicion. She works across domains such as criminal investigation, predictive policing, smart cities, security of borders, and prisons.
Her research projects range from the use of biometric identification technologies in Criminal Justice settings, such as photography, facial recognition, fingerprints, and DNA profiling to the use of visual surveillance tools by law enforcement, including work funded by the Scottish Government and Scottish Institute for Policing Research on body-worn cameras and other emergent technologies (both reports available here: http://hdl.handle.net/1893/34460 and https://www.gov.scot/publications/review-emerging-technologies-policing-findings-recommendations/ ).
More recently, she has been exploring how AI engages with human emotion and intention, looking at the development of predictive biometrics in policing and security settings. This work has been developed in the 3-year ESRC project (2020-23), “Emotional AI in Cities: Cross Cultural Lessons from UK and Japan on Designing for An Ethical Life”. Dr Diana Miranda also actively seeks to understand citizens’ perspectives on novel and emerging technologies through projects like the 2023 EPSRC funded 'Critically Exploring Biometric AI Futures' (report available here: https://www.stir.ac.uk/research/hub/publication/1940503#files)
Dr Diana Miranda is currently supervising doctoral students in these research areas and welcomes PhD enquiries from prospective applicants with similar research interests.
Diana has published over 20 articles in leading peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journals and several book chapters in both English and Portuguese (https://www.stir.ac.uk/people/1745041#outputs). She has been an invited speaker to present her research findings nationally and internationally, such as in Japan, Portugal and Germany. Her research has also been presented in + 50 academic conferences around the world (e.g. Surveillance and Society Conference, Eurocrim, The European Group for the Study of Deviance and Social Control, Data Justice, BSA, Society for Social Studies of Science (4S), etc.).
Her work has also informed policy and practice of different Criminal Justice institutions (e.g. in the UK and Portugal) and she has contributed expert evidence to the Scottish Parliament’s Justice Sub-Committee on Policing (e.g. namely on biometrics and the use of facial recognition technology in policing).
Before her position at the University of Stirling, Dr Diana Miranda carved her research and teaching trajectory through various universities across Europe and in the UK: including The Open University, Birkbeck – University of London, Northumbria University and Keele University.
