2017-2020: The Liar and its Revenge in Context

Together with Lorenzo Rossi, I have been awarded a FWF grant of more than EUR 390.000 for a project titled ‘The Liar and its Revenge in Context‘ (P29716-G24).

The project has started in January 2017 and will last until 2021. It involves (temporal parts of) two (awesome) post-doctoral researchers: Dr. Lorenzo Rossi and Brett Topey. Lorenzo is now an Assistant Professor in Munich. We are currently writing a book for OUP. Brett is still in Salzburg; we are currently working on issues surrounding conventionalism and the determinacy of mathematical language. You can visit the website of the project here.

2013-2015: Inference and Logic

The Inference and Logic project was funded by the British Academy and led by Julien Murzi and Florian Steinberger. It aimed at investigating inferentialist approaches to logic: approaches according to which (roughly) the meaning of a logical expression is determined by the way we use it, and to know the meaning of a logical expression is to know how to use it. Two controversial but, we think, fecund thoughts! Between April 2013 and July 2015, we wrote a bunch of papers and organised this conference.
