In 2006 I spent a year (sabbatical) at Columbia University.

My work is divided into two threads: In philosophy of physics I focus mainly on the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics and statistical physics. In philosophy of mind I focus on the mind-body question and the thesis of physicalism.
