Profile

Biography

My PhD is from the University of Toronto in the history and philosophy of science (2015). I have held postdoctoral and research fellowships at the Universities of Pittsburgh, Cambridge, Geneva, Zurich, Tübingen, and the LSE. Most recently, I was an Associate Professor at the National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University in Taipei. I am currently also a research fellow at the Center for Philosophy of Science at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
 
I combine qualitative and quantitative approaches with traditional philosophical methods to investigate scientific reasoning (especially scientific imagination and creativity), scientific tools (especially thought experiments, models, visualizations), and the impact of artificial intelligence on science. I am now Principle Investigator for a 5 year ERC-funded project (2026-2031) on the impacts of AI on science.

For an up-to-date list of publications, see my personal website, my Google Scholar page, or my philpeople profile.
