Dr Sam Mason

I’m a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow in philosophy. Before coming to Oxford, I was an assistant professor at the University of Duisburg-Essen. I received my PhD from the University of Leeds in 2023. I work on metaethics and moral psychology, with a special focus on moral sentimentalism in metaethics.
