Consciousness: My research is primarily focused on the relations of conscious experiences and physical states. I am working on a theory that is able to account for the gap between our scientific explanations and the phenomenal character of our subjective conscious experiences, while remaining compatible with current empirically motivated theories in consciousness research.
Reduction: I study the ontological and epistemological aspects of reduction. Accounting for the weaknesses of currently accepted models of reductive explanations, I am working on a project that is in accord with the practice of both physical and life sciences.
Emergence: I am interested in both the metaphysical problem of "strong emergence" and the problem of "weak emergence" in the philosophy of science. I attempt to show that strong emergence can be characterized coherently, without self-contradictions; I also work on the systematization of concepts of emergence in various fields of science, and their analysis based on the current discourse in the philosophy of science. |
