Haniya's research interests primarily revolve around investigating the antecedents and consequences of religious and other identity-based stigma using social identity and intersectionality frameworks. In the past, she has conducted stigma and prejudice-focused research by employing survey experiments and natural language processing techniques. Her latest studies focus on how stigma drives endorsement of certain conspiracy theories. Prior to joining BASP, Haniya worked at the Sidanius Lab (Harvard University), and was a research assistant and program manager on a project funded by the International Growth Centre, UK. 

Bryant's current research interests are racial-ethnic identity integration, sociocultural norms, stigma, well-being, and urban health disparities. Specifically, Bryant is interested in examining how people with stigmatized identities (e.g., BIPOC) perceive social support in comparison to those who are non-stigmatized and whether certain sociocultural norms (e.g., cultural values), in relation to their identity, influence certain psychosocial outcomes.
