Victor Kumar

I am an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Boston University.

My research is primarily in naturalistic ethics. I write about topics in moral 
philosophy that can be illuminated by work in cognitive science and
evolutionary theory. I am also interested in the ethics of race and gender.

I completed a Ph.D. in Philosophy in 2013 at the University of Arizona,
​where I wrote a dissertation under the supervision of Shaun Nichols.

From 2015-17 I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Toronto. 
From 2013-15, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan. 
In 2011/12 I was a visiting research fellow at Harvard University and
​Joshua Greene's Moral Cognition Lab. 

I am a member of the interdisciplinary Moral Psychology Research Group.
