Michael Massey
Assistant Professor, National Catholic School of Social Service, Catholic University of America
Michael Massey is currently an Assistant Professor at the National Catholic School of Social Service at the Catholic University of America and teaches courses in social justice, diversity, human behavior, and social policy. His research interests include the school to prison pipeline, racial equity in education, antiracist practice in schools and other organizations, antiracist social work practice, and critical race theory (CRT) applications to policy and practice. His previous work in k-12 school settings, mostly as a school counselor, led to a desire to study and better understand the ways that school policies and practices promote or create barriers to educational equity. As such, he has conducted research that examine the processes that lead to racial disciplinary disparities in schools and suggest school policies that are targeted to eliminate racial hierarchy. His scholarship also extends to antiracist pedagogy in higher education and social work policy practice. Dr. Massey’s areas of expertise include the school to prison pipeline, critical race theory, racial disparities in school discipline, preventative and restorative approaches to school discipline, and antiracist teaching approaches in higher education.

Michael Platt
Professor of Marketing and Psychology and Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania
Michael is known for asking some of the most challenging questions in 21st century neuroscience—and conceiving innovative ways to find the answers.
His principal questions focus on the biological mechanisms that underlie decision-making in social environments, the grasp of which has broad-scale implications for improving health and welfare in societies worldwide.
Michael's unquenchable quest for answers has led him outside the traditional boundaries of neuroscience: his broad expertise in psychology, economics, evolutionary biology, and ethology, in addition to his collaborations with colleagues in these fields, have enabled him to reach ever-deeper levels of understanding about the neural bases of cognitive behavior.
Michael's pioneering of the field goes beyond breaching its boundaries: he was among the small cadre of scientists who first rejected the long-held idea that decision-making is a reactive sensory-motor process. Instead, he adopted an economic-mathematical approach to studying its physiology, setting a precedent that has changed standard practice in the field. His particular quantitative approach has established a more realistic method of inquiry that yields improved analyses of data sets in brain research.
