I work in Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science. My areas of specialisation are social cognition, perception, action, embodied cognition and theories of consciousness. Previously I have been a Marie Curie Fellow (Intra-European Fellowship for Experienced Researcher) at the Center for Mind, Brain and Cognitive Evolution, Institut für Philosophie II, Ruhr-Universität Bochum (Germany) and have held postdoctoral fellowships at Center for Subjectivity Research, University of Copenhagen (Denmark), and at the Department of Philosophy, University of Bristol (UK). I am also currently exploring philosophical research into Digital Humanities.
