My research is primarily in three areas: philosophy of science, ethics and moral psychology, and philosophy of language. All of it is broadly centered on cooperation.

In philosophy of science, I mostly focus on interdisciplinary science. The National Science Foundation has funded my project to conduct a national survey of scientists about their philosophical views of science. I am also a part of the Toolbox Dialogue Initiative, which conducts workshops with interdisciplinary research teams to build collaborative capacity through philosophical dialogue.

In ethics, I work on virtue ethics and moral psychology. A lot of that research has focused on intellectual humility. I also edited a volume on The Moral Psychology of Amusement.

In philosophy of language, I’ve published on the speech acts of gossip and bragging. I’m also interested in how dialogue can foster integration on collaborative teams. Currently, I’m working on two papers on ambiguity.
