Getting Involved
Gender and Social Cognition Group
With Dr. Zach Horne, the BIAS Lab is hosting fortnightly meetings. Please email us to enquire about the possibility of joining.
The purpose of these meetings is to create a space for folks in psychology (and beyond) to chat about their research. Each week someone will present ongoing work for feedback, and we'll also have external guest speakers. Talks will focus on the social cognition of gender, gendered beliefs, gender identity, gender biases, intersections among gender and other identities, gender schema, gender in language etc.

Our Values
In our research, investigate beliefs about important social identities. Through our research, we aim to reduce unfair social hierarchies and create a more inclusive, equitable society for all.
We apply these values to our lab culture as well. We endeavor to create a welcoming, supportive, and collaborative environment embodying rigorous, ethical, and transparent research practices.
We want people with diverse backgrounds and life experiences— including people of all gender identities, class backgrounds, sexual orientations, race/ethnicities, abilities, and religious beliefs—to feel valued and empowered to share their input on the challenging topics and societal issues we investigate.
We are here to listen to students of all levels and support their research and career goals.
