I am a postdoctoral research fellow at Umeå University.

My primary research interests are metaphysics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of logic, and philosophy of language.

 

News:

Pär Sundström and I, in association with Frank Jackson, have been awarded a 3.75 million SEK (about 350,000 Euros) grant from Vetenskapsrådet (the Swedish Research Council).

The project will span 2020-2022 and is called ‘How are we able to think about things?’

More details to come!
