Shaun Nichols--one of a growing number of philosophers who have been at the forefront of bringing empirical psychology (beyond cognitive science) in to contact with ethics and epistemology--has accepted an offer from the University of Utah; he is currently an Associate Professor at the College of Charleston.
Other philosophers working in a similar vein include John Doris (UC Santa Cruz), Gilbert Harman (Princeton), Joshua Knobe (Princeton PhD student), Peter Railton (Michigan), Stephen Stich (Rutgers), Peter Vranas (Iowa State), and Jonathan Weinberg (Indiana/Bloomington), among others.
If successful, they'll help effect a long-overdue empirical revolution in moral philosophy.
