Damien P. Williams

My name is Damien Patrick Williams, and I’m an Assistant Professor in the departments of Philosophy and Data Science with a doctorate in Science, Technology, and Society (or “science and technology studies,” or “science and technology in society,” depending on from whom you ask for a definition of “STS”) from Virginia Tech, and master’s degree in philosophy and comparative religious studies from Georgia State University. My research explores how the intersections and implications of philosophy, technology, categories of knowledge, religious traditions, public policy, justice, marginalization, and human social values all overlap and influence each other.
