About
I joined the Edinburgh Department of Philosophy in July 2007 as the new Chair in Epistemology. Before coming Edinburgh, I was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Stirling. I did my PhD under the supervision of Crispin Wright at the University of St. Andrews, where I held a Royal Institute of Philosophy Jacobsen Fellowship. Between 2002 and 2004 I held a Leverhulme Trust Special Research Fellowship. During 2005 I was an invited visiting Professor at the University of Aarhus, Denmark, as part of the Denmark-wide NAMICONA project that is funded by the Danish Academy of the Sciences. In 2007 I was awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize.
