I am a doctoral student at the Institute of Philosophy in Osnabrück, and my research interests revolve around the intersection of philosophy of computation, philosophy of science, and artificial intelligence. I mainly work on non-classical computation, specifically the question of whether neuromorphic computers can duplicate the computational structure of the mammalian brain. I am also an associated member of the Reasearch Training Group (RTG) Situated Cognition, a collaboration of the Universities of Osnabrück and Bochum.
