About
To date, I haven't encountered a philosophical topic that I didn't find fascinating. That said, my teaching and research interests have to do with questions of human reasoning. More specifically, I have ongoing research projects in the philosophy of science (particularly on issues pertaining to explanation, confirmation, and scientific method), mainstream epistemology (especially regarding the internalism / externalism debate, nature of understanding, and induction), formal epistemology (particularly inductive logics, explication, and formal accounts of epistemic coherence), and the psychology of human reasoning (including heuristics and biases, fallacies, rational analysis). Lately, I've been thinking a bit about philosophical method too.
