Research interests
My research is in cognitive science on rationality, consciousness, mental representation and language acquisition with a focus on the conceptual and methodological questions that arise in these areas. Together with researchers at Macquarie Cognitive Science Centre I am currently investigating childrens' acquisition and comprehension of logical concepts and principles.
