Madeleine Ransom

I am an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan in the department of Economics, Philosophy and Political Science since January 2021. I am also a Canada Research Chair, and Faculty Associate at the W. Maurice Young Centre for Applied Ethics. Before that, I completed a SSHRC postdoctoral fellowship at the Percepts and Concepts Lab at Indiana University, Bloomington, where I worked with Rob Goldstone on bias in perceptual learning. I defended my dissertation in March 2020, two weeks before the world went into COVID lockdown. My excellent committee was composed of co-supervisors Dominic McIver Lopes and Murat Aydede, and Chris Mole and Evan Thompson.
