I hold a PhD in Philosophy (Cognitive Science) from the University of Edinburgh (UK). My thesis explores how higher cognition could be accounted for within the Predictive Processing framework, an exciting emerging paradigm in cognitive neuroscience. Previously, I completed an MSc in Epistemology, Ethics and Mind at the University of Edinburgh (UK), as well as a BA in Philosophy from Birkbeck, University of London. My MSc thesis was supervised by Andy Clark. It explored what "concepts" could be within Predictive Processing.

My interests are focused on the cognitive-computational nature of concepts, thought, natural language and logic and how those are interrelated. Based on a better understanding of those phenomena, I also try to shed new light on issues in philosophy of language, like semantic paradoxes, metaphor and the relation between semantics and pragmatics.

I am also interested in artificial intelligence and machine learning and the question of what would be needed to achieve artificial general intelligence.
