Lindsay Bing, PhD

About

I am an incoming Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Alberta. I completed my PhD at the University of Texas at Austin in 2022 and post-doctoral research at the Columbia University Justice Lab. My research investigates how the policies and practices of criminal legal institutions shape racial and economic inequality. In my work, I use quantitative and demographic methods to answer questions grounded in sociological theories of race and racism, social control, surveillance, and punishment.
