My research focuses on the history and philosophy of science (especially biology) and late modern European philosophy (Kant to present). My current projects concern the German tradition of bio-philosophy known as "philosophical anthropology," the ontology  of central biological categories (e.g. individuals, lineages, species), and the history of twentieth-century  philosophies of biology. From 2016-2018 I'm funded by the National Science Foundation to conduct research on the last of these topics.
