About me

Raised and educated in Toulouse, France I moved to the UK in 1995 to take a degree in linguistics at King's College Cambridge, followed by a masters in philosophy of cognitive science at the University of Sussex and a PhD in Philosophy at King's College London.

Immediately prior to taking up my current position at KU Leuven, I was a Visiting Research Fellow at the CPNSS, London School of Economics, a Sessional Lecturer at Birkbeck College and a Lecturer at the University of Glasgow.

My research focuses on epistemology, philosophy of mind and philosophy of science (esp. confirmation theory and philosophy of biology).

My philosophical ancestry: C.H. Weisse > H. Lotze > J. Ward > G. E. Moore > C. Lewy > I. Hacking > D. Papineau > me. [-]
