About me

I am a PhD student in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Geneva and member of the Episteme Research Group. I am writing my thesis on epistemology of perception under the supervision of Professor Pascal Engel within the project "Perceptual Warrant, Entitlement and A Priori Knowledge" founded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). Starting in February until December 2012, I am working as a Visiting Postgraduate Researcher in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Glasgow, under the supervision of Professor Fiona Macpherson. Among my interests are epistemology, philosophy of perception, philosophy of mind, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience. I was also member of the Editorial Committee of Dialectica from 2009 to 2011.
