Mitchell Barrington

I’m a PhD student at the University of Michigan

For the foreseeable future, I’ll be visiting other departments: Stockholm University (May & June 2026), the Australian National University (rest of 2026), and MIT (January – June 2027)

Most of my research is in formal ethics, using decision-theoretic resources to understand the structure of moral theories.

In 2023, I was a research fellow at the Center for AI Safety. In Fall 2022, I was a PhD student at the University of Southern California. From 2020-2022, I completed a Master of Philosophy at the Dianoia Institute of Philosophy (RIP)

I’m originally from Perth, Western Australia
