I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Philosophy at the University of Leeds, where I am working on Robbie Williams's ERC funded Group Thinking project. Previously I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Oslo, affiliated with CSMN and ConceptLab. I completed my PhD at the University of St Andrews (2011-2015), where I was affiliated with the Arché Philosophical Research Centre. I was supervised by Herman Cappelen, and my examiners were Lizzie Fricker and Patrick Greenough. Before that I completed my BA and MA in philosophy at the University of Leeds.
My research focuses primarily on knowledge and communication, together with the social and linguistic practices that sustain our ability to acquire knowledge from others. My overall aim is to build up a picture of the nature and function of both knowledge and justification that allows us not only to better understand, but also improve our epistemic and communicative practices, together with our epistemic concepts. Thus, my research touches on a broad range of issues in epistemology, the philosophy of language, and the philosophy of action. This includes social and political epistemology and philosophy of language. You can find my CV here. You can contact me at andrewpeet123 at Gmail dot com. When I am not doing philosophy I like to spend time with my wife Lizzie and my son Oliver. I also enjoy rock climbing. |
