10. Hanne Watkins: From academia to behavioural insights in government, Registered Reports, and morality in war

Hanne Watkins is an adviser for the Behavioural Economics Team of the Australian Government. Previously, she was a PhD student and postdoc studying how humans think about morality in the context of war.In this conversation, we talk about Hanne's move from academia to governmental work, and about her previous work on morality in a war context. We also talk about her experience of running a Registered Report, something I've read a fair bit about, but haven't yet gotten around to doing myself.BJKS Podcast is a podcast about neuroscience, psychology, and anything vaguely related, hosted by Benjamin James Kuper-Smith.
