Koustuv Saha studies how people communicate and seek support online, particularly around mental health, wellbeing, and information-sharing, using social media and large-scale text data. Recent work compares how AI systems (like large language models) and humans write and respond in health, workplace, and community support contexts, and examines the effects of AI-generated content on trust, emotional support, and social dynamics. The research combines computational analysis of online communities with questions about AI's role in healthcare communication, content moderation, and human-AI interaction.
Publication output has grown substantially over the past decade, rising from single digits in 2017-2018 to over 20-30 papers per year by 2023-2025, indicating an increasingly active and productive research program.
