Tania Lombrozo is an Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Berkeley.

Much of his research is concerned with the impact of moral judgments on people's intuitions about matters that might at first appear to be entirely non-moral in nature.

His current research focuses on the psychological underpinnings of philosophical problems.
