I am Chair of Philosophy of Mind (W3) at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen, where I direct the Munich Interactive Intelligence Initiative, an interdisciplinary platform bringing together philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, and AI research. I previously served as Deputy Director at the Institute of Philosophy, University of London and remain closely engaged in international research collaboration and academic leadership.

I serve on the editorial boards of Philosophy and the Mind Sciences, Theorema, Cognitive Science, and iScience, and regularly review and evaluate proposals for major funding bodies including the ERC, DFG, NSF, ANR, SNF, and the Humboldt Foundation.

I organised the 2012 European Society for Philosophy and Psychology meeting and eight editions of the Aegina Social Cognition Summer School. I am actively involved in research governance as a member of the academic board of the Munich Center for Neuroscience and as head of the ethics committee.

My research has been supported by competitive national and international funding schemes, including the AHRC, ERC, EIC, DFG, Nomis Foundation, Volkswagen Foundation and BIDT.

In 2025, I join Dan Dennett, Ned Block, Patricia Churland, and Tim Crane as a recipient of the Sine Medal in Neuroethics and Philosophy.
