Weitere Informationen
As a postdoc fellow at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP) I am doing research in formal philosophy. The second focus of my research centers about topics in science communication with the central question: How can mathematical philosophy be communicated and made visible to promote our discipline? In 2013 I am teaching philosophy of science (at Mainz University), theories of causation (at the University of Pécs, Hungary), and topics in philosophy and robotics (at Venice International University).
Currently I am organizing the following events at the MCMP:
- Conference "Models and Decisions" (10-12 April, 2013)
- Conference "Foundations of Physics" (29-31 July, 2013)
Research Interests
My research centers around formal epistemology, causal modeling and the metaphysics of causation, probability theory, Bayesian networks, and algorithmical aspects of classical and philosophical logic. I have a background in logic, computational linguistics, automata theory, databases, object oriented programming, and cognitive linguistics. In my doctoral thesis I dealt with causal inference from structured knowledge in an extended Bayes net interventionist setting.
