David I. Miller

Researcher

David Miller is a researcher at AIR, where he conducts and leads research on improving science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, especially with regards to broadening participation in STEM fields. Dr. Miller currently serves as principal investigator on a three-year National Science Foundation (NSF) project to synthesize over 25 years of research across the world on the development of children’s gender stereotypes about STEM abilities. His other responsibilities at AIR include designing research studies, conducting quantitative analyses, preparing graphics, creating interactive websites, and writing research reports.

His research has been published in leading academic journals such as American Psychologist, Child Development, Journal of Educational Psychology, and Trends in Cognitive Sciences. Mass media has covered this work in international outlets such as BBC News, CNN, Nature, Science, The Atlantic, and the Washington Post. In addition, Dr. Miller has written popular press articles appearing in outlets such as Business Insider, Huffington Post, Scientific American, and U.S. News.

Prior to joining AIR, Dr. Miller earned his doctorate in psychology from Northwestern University where he analyzed nationally representative longitudinal datasets to study transitions into and out of STEM. His extensive quantitative training includes a bachelor’s in mathematical physics at Harvey Mudd College, a fellowship through University of Chicago’s Data Science for Social Good Summer Fellowship, and several graduate courses and workshops in advanced statistical methods. During graduate school, he was also an NSF Graduate Research Fellow.
