Justin Shin is an Embedded Ethics Fellow in partnership with Stanford's Institute for Human-Centered AI and the McCoy Family Center for Ethics and Society. His research focuses on the intersection between science and public policy. He is currently thinking about recent attempts to legislate algorithmic transparency, statistical evidence of discrimination, and the history of conversion therapy. Justin earned a PhD in the History and Philosophy of Science from the University of Pittsburgh in 2025. His dissertation focused on fairness and justice through the distribution of causal influence amongst stakeholders, arguing that current problems in discrimination law and algorithmic justice can be addressed by protecting a stakeholder's ability to have limited control over their environment. Before pursuing his PhD, Justin earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics and philosophy at Bard College, supported by a Distinguished Scientist Scholarship. Alongside his academic interests, Justin also works to bring philosophy education to the public as a board member of Corrupt the Youth, a non-profit dedicated to bringing high-quality philosophy education to public high schools across the United States.
