Alan Gerber serves as Acting Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Division of Social Science and Director of the Institution for Social and Policy Studies (ISPS) at Yale University. He holds the prestigious Sterling Professorship in Political Science with secondary appointments in Economics and Public Health, reflecting his interdisciplinary approach to governance and policy research. His academic home is the Department of Political Science within Yale's Faculty of Arts and Sciences.
Gerber's research spans:
- Experimental analysis of voter turnout mechanisms
- Election integrity perceptions and threats
- Behavioral interventions in political mobilization
- Intersection of public health crises and electoral participation
- Political economy of policy feasibility
Analysis of his 2022-2025 publications reveals three dominant trends: (1) intensifying focus on electoral threats following the 2020 US election, particularly examining partisan disagreements about fraud and ballot security; (2) innovative experiments testing emotional and identity-based mobilization triggers, including anger and social identity priming; and (3) growing integration of public health perspectives, especially regarding pandemic-era voting behavior and vaccine uptake campaigns. His work consistently challenges assumptions about subtle psychological interventions in politics through rigorous replication studies.
