Just had a fascinating talk with Dr. Susanna Schellenberg (@Schellenberg_1), about her great book, The Unity of Perception: Content, Consciousness, Evidence. I think I just broke my brain, honestly. Stay tuned, and run and buy her book.

So excited for ASSC next year in Tokyo! Based at the University of Tokyo, it looks amazing @kanair - so delighted to be giving a keynote. Looking forward to seeing everyone next year after a brilliant meeting in NYC #ASSC26 #ASSC27

Decades-long debate on consciousness ends — and it’s philosopher 1, neuroscientist 0 https://t.co/ckIQN5Y3iJ @davidchalmers42

We are THRILLED to welcome Yujin Nagasawa to OU Phil as our new Kingfisher Chair!

Please feel free to share this post so more potentail mentors can see it!

Please indicate your interest in any (or both) of these events. Note that indicating your interest isNOT a commitment to participate in all mentorship events, only an indication of interest. We will follow up via email with further information.

If the slots haven't filled, we are also looking for mentees for the pop-up mentoring event. Mentees can be students, post-docs, or faculty at any level looking for professional support.

We are also looking for mentors (post-doc or higher) for one-one-one pop-up mentoring during the conference. The time commitment is flexible and up to each individual mentor-mentee pair.

Our “Lunch with leaders” event on Wednesday June 21 st will give young scholars (students and post-docs) a chance to meet and chat informally with two SPP faculty members (one philosopher, one psychologist) working in their research area. Lunch will be provided.

Here's info about the lunch:

I look forward to talking about representations and mind with these people in the hot Valencia.

And I can't wait to see many of you at future workshops in Miami on topics like mental and scientific representation and animal minds. I'm also super excited to introduce my banana and palm trees to all of their new friends!

The past year has been a veritable whirlwind of life-changing ups and downs. But overall, I have been exceedingly fortunate, so may this post assert my gratitude and help spread the mighty good luck that I’ve enjoyed!

At the same time, I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to work with my brilliant and amazing colleagues and students at OU, many of whom I consider dear friends. From the bottom of my heart, I will miss you.

It’s hard to imagine a department for which my current research interests could be a better fit, and I'm thrilled to continue my research among such inspiring philosophers! It will also be nice, and a relief, to be closer to my family not to mention living in a tropical paradise!

I’m beyond honored, and utterly ecstatic, to have as my colleagues a group of philosophers whose work I’ve been reading and admiring for years, and to have the opportunity to work with such talented and enthusiastic graduate students.
