CASBS Names 38 to 2021-22 Fellows Class

March 15, 2021 1738

The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University has announced its 2021-22 fellows class of 38 scholars representing 19 U.S. institutions and nine international institutions and programs.

Members of the 2021-22 CASBS class conduct research in a variety of fields in the social and behavioral sciences and cognate disciplines: anthropology, applied behavioral science, communication, computer science and engineering, cultural studies, economics, education, history, information science, law, philosophy, political science, psychology, public affairs, public policy and urban studies, science writing, and sociology. The class also embodies the full range of diversity – of age, ethnicity, gender, and race – that has been a CASBS signature feature.

“Each academic year, CASBS renews itself as an intellectual community like no other,” said Sally Schroeder, the Center’s associate director. “So much of the revitalization depends on CASBS attracting superb cross-disciplinary thinkers who interact in ways that make the fellows cohort so much greater than the sum of individual minds. And this is the hallmark of the program.”

Though uncertainties related to the COVID pandemic persist, the Center expects that most, if not all, aspects of the 2021-22 fellowship program – including its residential aspects – will proceed without delay or disruption.

The 2021-22 class (in alphabetical order). Several fellowships are funded by some of CASBS’s partner fellowship programs, and those are noted where applicable.

It is possible that one or more fellows will be added to the class in the coming months.

In addition to fellows, the Center has three other appointment designations: visiting scholars (academics who are spouses/partners of fellows), research affiliates (non-Stanford scholars who lead CASBS-based projects), and faculty fellows (Stanford faculty who lead CASBS-based projects). The Center will finalize these appointments by late spring or summer.

The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University is a national and international resource that exists to extend knowledge of the principles governing human behavior to help solve the critical problems of contemporary society. Through our residential postdoctoral fellowship programs for scientists and scholars from this country and abroad, we seek to advance basic understanding of the social, psychological, historical, biological and cultural foundations of behavior and society.
