This is the first panel of the Expanding Empathy 2024 Speaker Series, hosted by the Consortium on Moral Decision-Making. We will be joined by three speakers: Sa-kiera Hudson (Psychology, University of California, Berkeley), Felipe De Brigard (Philosophy, Duke University), and Eran Halperin (Psychology, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem). The theme will be empathy, forgiveness, and conflict. Each speaker will give short talks and there will be much time for interdisciplinary conversation and questions from the audience.
