Personal profile
Research overview
I am a PhD candidate in philosophy (FCT-funded) and my research centers on the metaphysics of science and mereology. I aim to develop a new account of the unity of science that is hierarchical yet non-reductive, drawing mostly on neo-Aristotelian metaphysics.
I am associated with Aaron Cotnoir's ERCCoG project "Instruments of Unity: the Many Ways of Being One".
