Adding pointless administrative burdens to deter legal immigration

Inequality is not only hard to solve.
Sometimes, it is hard to *see*.
We ask a simple question: Do people notice when members of minority groups are absent?
Across field studies and experiments, the answer was often no.
I'll be recruiting PhD students (2027 entry) and a postdoc to join the lab at Berkeley.
Interests:
• continuous person perception in interactive contexts
• impression management and its biases
• social perception in digital spaces
Get in touch if there's overlap.
Very excited for this next chapter!
Rather than submitting papers to (or reviewing for) Frontiers journals, consider these alternatives:
-PLOS
-Collabra
-eLife
-OpenMind

When practitioners used the term “social media” to describe the internet tools that emerged in the mid-aughts, they were giving a name to the kinds of platforms...
Politicians endlessly blame immigration for their own failures. So, when immigration is reduced, their ‘success’ isn’t recognised.
No one’s life has particularly improved. Because no one’s life was ever going to improve by reducing immigration. Because our problems were never caused by immigration.
If their goal is to choke off economic advantages from the US’s university system it’s hard to think of a more effective way.
Scientists and other academics come to the US to study— then stay in the US often via green cards, to start companies, do unique work, and contribute to the US economy.
