Cullin Brown - Lab Director
(he/him/his)
Cullin Brown is a PhD candidate in 香港六合彩资料's philosophy program. His dissertation is on fitting emotions and the roles they play in our personal lives and interpersonal practices (Consider: You're amused by a video you think is funny, so you show your friend. They don't laugh, and you feel somewhat surprised, somewhat embarrassed. You express this using words and/or body language. How should we understand the values at stake in these types of situations?). Cullin is also a researcher on the MORE project, funded by the European Research Council and hosted by the University of Oslo's Institute of Health and Society. The project explores the epistemological, ethical, and educational aspects of moral residue in an interdisciplinary manner (Consider: A doctor feels terrible after being unable to help a patient through no fault of their own. How should they feel in such a situation? How can we validate their feelings of being responsible for something terrible without tacitly blaming them, which would be unfair?) Cullin has taught and TAed classes in ethics, social and political philosophy, and logic. He would be happy to think critically with you!

Alexandra Weber
(she/her/hers)
Alexandra is a junior double majoring in philosophy and cinema. Her favorite topics include metaphysics and epistemology as well as different theories that question what shapes the way one perceives, interprets, and interacts with the world as an entity. Her work in cinema studies and filmmaking often overlaps with these topics. This has allowed her to experiment with perception, and think critically about the expression of identity and knowledge through film. Ethics is another branch of philosophy she enjoys studying, and uses to inspire and challenge her way of thinking. Environmental ethics is her favorite topic due to the importance it holds in contemporary society.
Some classes she has excelled in are:
- Phil 107: Existence and Freedom
- Phil 122: Elementary Logic
- PHIL 149 Environmental Ethics
- Phil 201: Plato and Aristotle
