I am Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Tokyo, and an Associate Fellow of the Formal Epistemology Project (Groningen) and the Northern Institute of Philosophy (Aberdeen). I am also an External Researcher of the COGITO Research Project (Bologna).
My main interests are in the philosophies of language and thought, perception and cognition, formal epistemology and philosophical logic. I am currently mainly working on vagueness, with a special interest in the problem of what sort of facts give rise to it. I have also ongoing projects on the theory of concepts, and on actuality. Beyond this, I have been working on truth, epistemic disagreement, subjective probability, and on conditionals.
Most recently, I founded the Tokyo Forum for Analytic Philosophy (meanwhile better known as “TFAP”).
