About me
My research focuses on aesthetics, philosophy of cognitive science (including AI) & mind.
I have done research on implicit bias (such as implicit prejudices and stereotypes), emotions, moral psychology, aesthetic experiences, and various interactions between these topics (such as bias in art). In my current research, I focus on bias in AI applications.
Currently, I am doing a YUFE-funded postdoc at Maastricht University on the Philosophy of AI, more specifically on bias and stereotyping in AI, supervised by Katleen Gabriels and Katrien Schaubroeck.
In 2018, I completed my doctoral studies in philosophy at UGent and UAntwerp, at Bence Nanay's Research Group (Centre for Philosophical Psychology). My doctoral work is on emotion and mental content.
In October 2019, I started doing interdisciplinary research on implicit bias and implicit racism, at UAntwerp and KULeuven. I received a Postdoctoral Fellowship from the FWO (Flemish Research Foundation).
I took a break from this project during the academic year of 2020-2021, because I received the British Society of Aesthetics Postdoctoral Award. I did research on fiction, emotion and implicit attitudes at Birkbeck College (University of London).
I was a postdoctoral researcher at Thumos, which is part of the Swiss Center for Affective Sciences, at the University of Geneva (2018-2019). I received a Postdoctoral Swiss Government Excellence Scholarship to do research on emotion and implicit bias.
In 2023-2024, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Barcelona Institute of Analytic Philosophy, and Logos at the University of Barcelona.
