Person

I am an associate professor of theoretical philosophy (since 2015).

My dissertation (Objects in Time, 2009) was a compilation thesis on the metaphysics of time and persistence.

Since I received my PhD degree, my research has focused primarily on social ontology and on the philosophy of causation. During 2024 I'm on a sabbatical leave, writing a book manuscript on social ontology.

I have been a visiting researcher at The Centre for Time, University of Sydney (July-Dec 2006), Institute of Philosophy, University of Neuchâtel (May 2017), and at The Center for Philosophy of Science, University of Pittsburgh (April 2018). In October 2024, I will visit the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Groningen.

I was Director of Doctoral Studies between 2015-2018, Deputy Head and Assistant Head of Department managing doctoral studies and research between 2019-2022, and Assistant Head of Department managing research during 2023.
