Bio
Daniel Yonas is a 4th year doctoral student in developmental and social psychology at Columbia University. He began his research career as a research assistant in an early childhood development lab. This work sparked his interest in integrating moral psychology and intergroup bias research, as the students of color in this study faced harsher moral judgments than White students who experienced similar circumstances. His work now integrates these fields areas that have remained largely separate to date, to create a science that better speaks to the experiences of minoritized people who have experienced instances of immorality rooted in intergroup bias.
