Sarah Robins

PROF. SARAH ROBINS

I am an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Kansas, and the Director of Graduate Studies for our M.A. and Ph.D. programs. I’m also an affiliate of the Cognitive and Brain Sciences Ph.D. Program, in KU’s Psychology Department.

​

My research interests are at the intersection of philosophy and psychology. My primary focus is on memory. I have related interests in philosophy of mind and philosophy of science on the issues of tacit knowledge, the personal/subpersonal distinction, and mechanistic explanation.
