My work is primarily about metaphysics and philosophy of science in modern European philosophy. In my dissertation I argue that Mary Shepherd's theory of causation is best read in the context of the tradition of metaphysical emergentism, and I develop a model for understanding Shepherd's view as an emergentist account of causation. This model captures her central metaphysical commitments, as well as explaining her response to Hume's causal theory. My work has appeared in Mind, Archiv für Geschichte der Philosophie, and the Journal of Modern philosophy.
