Research Profile
I am a philosopher working at the intersection of individual decision-making and collective decision mechanisms, with a particular focus on questions of institutional design. My research engages with the models and theoretical frameworks we use to represent and evaluate such processes. This work is inherently interdisciplinary, drawing on insights from philosophy of science, economics, computer science, and political science. Methodologically, I combine traditional philosophical approaches — such as conceptual analysis — with computational tools, including network modelling and, occasionally, experimental methods.
Contribution to Model Transfer
Within the MODEL TRANSFER project, my research focuses on the transfer of models between economics and computer science. In particular, I investigate how ideas surrounding the implementation of incentive-compatible mechanisms migrate from economics into algorithmic decision-making. I am also interested in the reverse movement—namely, the adoption of AI models within economics. My work examines how discipline-specific methodologies shape the models, concepts, and modes of application involved in these transfers, as well as how values travel along with them.
