Welcome to the Bridging Divides Lab at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC)!
We study what divides us and how to bring people together.
Our Current Research
Our research focuses on conflict and reconciliation, exploring topics such as perceived victimhood and intergroup conflict, reconciliation and reintegration in conflict contexts, and the use of media interventions to promote peaceful coexistence.
Want to get involved?
Get in touch if you are interested in partnering with us on a project or working in the lab as a research assistant.
Our Lab Members
Our lab is made up of a passionate and kind group of faculty, graduate students, and undergrads!
For prospective Ph.D. students: Dr. Littman will unfortunately NOT be reviewing applications this cycle for graduate students interested in joining the Bridging Divides Lab in Fall 2027.
