The TRUSST Lab supports student-led research seeking to advance the cross-boundary social science of trust.
Our lab is structured around PhD student-led research projects that advance the theory and practice of trust. Potential lab projects are evaluated by the full lab primarily for fit.
Undergraduate and graduate students who are not currently leading a project are welcome to help support existing lab projects.
Interested students are encouraged to contact the lab at trusstlab@gmail.com.
