Research

My work develops a research program at the intersection of neuroscience, philosophy of mind, ethics, and collective structures. Across books, papers, and conference work, I examine process-based models of mind and challenge static constructs such as consciousness, free will, morality, and rationality.

This page brings together the main books, papers, and ongoing directions that currently shape this research trajectory.
