I am a philosopher specialising in the philosophy of mind at its intersections with the cognitive sciences, metaphysics, and the philosophy of science.
My research centres on phenomenal consciousness. I believe that the best way to understand phenomenal consciousness with the tools of current cognitive science is by understanding attention. My works so far have applied this idea to the neural mechanisms of phenomenal consciousness, visual phenomenal character, consciousness' gradability, and the phenomenal unity of consciousness (especially, in split-brain subjects).
Currently, I am a postdoc at the CVBE, an interdisciplinary research group at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Here, I am working on my project "From Information to Consciousness through Attention and Integration", funded by the German Research Council (DFG).
