Who I am.I am a philosopher of science based at the University of Cambridge. I am a Senior Teaching Associate and Course Director in Philosophy at the the Institute of Continuing Education (ICE). I am also a Teaching Fellow at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence and a Tutor at Newnham College. Read about my role at ICE here.
Before coming to Cambridge, I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Munich Centre for Mathematical Philosophy and a Lecturer at the University of Sydney. I obtained my PhD in Philosophy from the University of Bristol and my undergraduate degree in History and Philosophy of Science from the University of Athens. |
What I do.
I research on the role of beauty in science, asking questions such as:
- What makes an experiment beautiful?
- What role do aesthetic experiences play in the lab?
- Are beautiful scientific products, such as theories, experiments or images, more likely to reveal truths about nature or to mislead us?
- What is the role of creativity in scientific discovery and can AI enhance it?
- Does the automation of science threaten the aesthetic experiences of scientists, often seen as a leading motivators for scientific work?
