I have been a member of the Cognitive Evolution Laboratory at Harvard University since the Fall of 2007; beginning in the Fall of 2008, I will be working as a Research Associate at the Center for Cognitive Studies at Tufts University
My research in the philosophy of mind and psycology focuses on the conditions for possessing mental states; I am currently developing a book length argument for the claim that some ascriptions of mental states to groups are literally true.
In moral psychology I am engaged in collaborative and experimental work with Marc Hauser and others. If you would like to volunteer, check out the moral sense test.
For other projects I am currently working on, see my 'papers' page.
Research Interests:
- Philosophy of mind
- Philosophy of psychology
- Philosophy of social science
- Metaethics
