Profile

I am Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at Underwood International College, Yonsei University, where I have been working since 2006. Before that I was at Trinity College, University of Cambridge, where I completed a PhD in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science (HPS). I have Masters degrees in HPS, biology, and cognitive science, and a first degree in mathematics. My main research interest at present is in the philosophy of psychoanalysis, and I am also interested in the emerging area of neuropsychoanalysis. I have published in a variety of philosophical, psychoanalytic, and scientific journals, and have written a book, Freud’s Theory of Dreams: A Philosophico-Scientific Perspective, published by Rowman & Littlefield.
