Faisal Feroz

Faisal is a DPhil candidate in Experimental Psychology at Somerville College, University of Oxford, funded by the Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (HASS) International PhD Scholarship. He is supervised by Professor Charles Spence and Dr Joanna Demaree-Cotton.

His DPhil examines the cognitive processes that underpin moral reasoning and ethical decision-making, with a focus on how people evaluate trade-offs in morally significant domains. One area of application is food ethics, where he investigates how individuals respond to emerging technologies such as cultured and plant-based meat.

Faisal previously completed a BA in Experimental Psychology at Wadham College, Oxford. Between his BA and DPhil, Faisal worked as a Research Assistant and Lab Manager in the EARP Lab (Experimental Bioethics, Artificial Intelligence, and Relational Moral Psychology) at the Centre for Biomedical Ethics.
