I am a PhD candidate in Philosophy at Dalhousie University. My interests are centered around philosophy of cognitive science, philosophy of psychology, and philosophy of mind. I am particularly interested in narrow versions of the other minds problem: Do nonhuman animals have minds? If so, what sorts of mental states do they have? Is it appropriate to attribute thoughts, beliefs, desires, conceptual capabilities, inferences, metacognition, etc., to animals other than ourselves?
