Professional Summary

https://www.briannalarson.com/

My interests, while broad, are in the philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, social epistemology, and value theory. I am particularly drawn to the connections between philosophy and psychology, neuroscience, and cognitive science. 

Historically, my work has focused on topics in consciousness, the philosophy of mind, social philosophy, affective introspection, and the philosophy of emotion. Lately, I’ve been interested in questions related to well-being, personal identity and narrative, feminist social epistemology, and social power.

I also have interests in pedagogy and philosophy for/with children. I am an active member of UC's Philosophy for Children Research and Outreach group. For 2024-2025, I am focusing on curriculum development for 5th and 6th grade classrooms.
