Biography

I am a teaching fellow at Trinity College Dublin. I completed my PhD at the University of Edinburgh, with a thesis entitled 'Mindreading in context', in the area of social cognition. Before that I undertook a master's at St Peter's College, Oxford, and undergraduate degree, once again, at the University of Edinburgh.

I am interested in philosophy of mind and cognitive science, feminist and social philosophy, and philosophy of science (and especially trying to bring all three areas together). At the moment I am thinking about social cognition in non-human animals and the role of sense modalities other than vision.
