Auke Montessori

I am a Philosopher specializing in Philosophy of Mind, Epistemology, and AI, with a focus on Perception and Understanding. More specifically, I conduct research on what it means to understand one's evidence, particularly when that evidence is a mental state. I am a final-year PhD candidate at Washington University in St. Louis, where I have also taught as a sole instructor and teaching assistant. My dissertation work is supervised by Casey O'Callaghan and Matthew McGrath.
