About Me

I'm interested in understanding, in a principled manner, (neuro)cognitive interaction and adaptation to the variabilities of the environment. More specifically my work assesses and advances modelling in cognitive neuroscience and the scientific realism debate applied to the Bayesian Brain hypothesis and active inference.

My work embodies the synergies of my collaborations. I combine methods from embodied and enactive cognitive science, complexity, to the free energy principle / Active (Bayesian) inference  in the understanding and characterisation of psychological experience, development, and (neuro)cognitive functions of adaptive systems in sociocultural settings  ever more technological, artificially intelligent, and digitalised - where I have identified a paradox. 

Recently, I've started taking seriously the societal impact of AI and technology so I co-founded and I am the director of the European Institute for Global Well-being (E-Glow).
Areas of specialisation: Philosophy of Neuroscience; Philosophy of Mind/AI; Philosophy of Science; Computational Neuroscience; Complexity.
