From a talk at EAG in 2019, I remembered that your approach could be summarized as empirical research in neglected areas (please correct me if I’m wrong here). Is this still the case? Do you still have a focus on empirical research (Over, say, philosophy)?
Yes, it is still our approach, broadly speaking, to focus on empirical research, though certainly not to the exclusion of philosophy research. And we’ve now done a lot of research that combines both, such as our published work on invertebrate sentience and our forthcoming work on the relative moral weight of different animals.
