Associate Professor
Philosophy
RESEARCH INTERESTS
With Ancient Philosophy (especially Aristotle), Metaphysics, and Philosophy of Biology as my central areas of interest, my current focus is on questions regarding the fundamental status of organisms within Aristotle’s philosophy, in particular an exploration of Aristotle’s understanding of the metaphysical composition of organisms--and on drawing connections with contemporary philosophy of biology.
