Alisa Mandrigin
I am currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities, University of Edinburgh. I also run the Early Career Mind Network, funded by a British Academy Rising Star Engagement Award 2016/17. My research interests are primarily in the philosophy of mind, and include perception and the senses, self-consciousness, action, self-knowledge, as well as philosophy of cognitive science. Laura Gow
I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Cambridge, working on the New Directions in the Study of the Mind project, which is led by Tim Crane. I am also a Research Associate at Peterhouse. My research focuses on issues in the philosophy of perception. I am particularly interested in the metaphysics of perceptual experience, and in considering the implications of endorsing a genuinely physicalist account of the mind. |
Ema Sullivan-Bissett
I am a Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Birmingham. My research interests are in the philosophy of mind and psychologically, specifically beliefs and its connection to truth, self-deception, and delusion. I am also interested in biological approaches to what are characteristically thought to be normative questions in philosophy of mind, epistemology, and ethics. Anna Ichino
I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Centre for Philosophical Psychology University of Antwerp. My main research interests are in the philosophy of mind and psychology, with a focus on imagination and its relationship to belief. I am also interested in aesthetics, notably in the cognitive underpinnings of our engagement with fictional works of art. |
Eileen John
I am an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Warwick. My research concerns how art and creative practices engage us as cognitive and ethical 'works-in-progress'. I have a specific interest in literature and its philosophical and ethical roles, with a broad aim of showing the relevance of literary works to contemporary debates in meta-ethics, moral psychology, epistemology, and value theory. |
Jennifer Corns
I am a Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Glasgow. I want to understand how our everyday ways of thinking about ourselves (including our minds and bodies) and what's important to us (including our feelings and health) are appropriately employed for (specialized) scientific and ethical theorizing. I think it's credible that if we can get better at this, then we will make ourselves and our lives a bit better. |
Peter Lamarque
I am a Professor of Philosophy at the University of York. One of the guiding ideas informing my work has been the thought that engaging with literature is not just a 'natural' activity, reading and responding to texts, but an activity deeply shaped by cultural conventions. These conventions, broadly specifiable within a 'practice' or 'institution', dictate the kinds of expectations that readers bring to literary works and the values they seek from them which the great literary works reward. |
Kathy Puddifoot
I am a Research Fellow in Philosophy at the University of Birmingham. I specialise in philosophy of psychology and epistemology. My main research interest is in what should be said about seemingly irrational thoughts, such as those that are the result of automatic and associative thinking, like implicit biases. |
Louise Richardson
I am a Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of York. My research is concerned with questions about perception and the senses. I have published papers on seeing empty space, smell, taste, touch, bodily awareness, cross-modal perception and Molyneux’s question. |
Maarten Steenhagen
I am a Lecturer in philosophy at the University of Cambridge, and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Institute of Advanced Studies of University College London. My research focuses on perception and the mind. In particular, I concentrate on the role of perceptual media—such as sounds, images, and optical technology. |
