I have been working on themes and problems at the interface between epistemology, general philosophy of science and philosophy of cognitive sciences, such as the nature of cognition, the myth of the given, the theory-ladenness of observation, social perception, the epistemic import of perceptual experience, and how perception is related to action and thought. In my current research, I approach some of these themes and problems from an enactive and ecological view of the mind.
