I am an Associate Professor in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Pittsburgh. My primary interests are scientific epistemology and the methodology of integrated history and philosophy of science.
I have an M.D. from the University of Bern, a Ph.D. in History and Philosophy of Science from the University of Cambridge, and the German Habilitation in Philosophy from the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich.
Previously, I worked for six years as a researcher and teacher at the University of Bern’s Department of Philosophy. On a postdoctoral grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation, I then continued my research as a Visiting Fellow at the University of Pittsburgh’s Center for Philosophy of Science, as a Visiting Scholar at the University of Cambridge’s Department of History and Philosophy of Science, and as a Research Associate at the University of Geneva’s Department of Philosophy. In the winter semester 2019–2020, I served as professor of the history of science (W3, Lehrstuhlvertretung) at the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich.
