New Paper on Public Trust and Democratic Values
Where I challenge the ideas that appealing to democratic values necessarily helps with restoring public trust in value-laden science.
New paper out
My paper on Kate Elgin’s account of scientific understating is out. Main claim: Elgin is a veritist despite her claims to the contrary. Enjoy!

2019 Central APA
I am happy to announce that I am on the 2019 Central APA program committee. The meeting will be in beautiful Denver, and, needless to say, will be fantastic!
Radio
I am very happy to be a monthly guest on “KGVO Talk Back”. I have discussed a large variety of issues on there, including veganism, sex work, free speech, originalism, racism, the death penalty, euthanasia, and the value of the environment. My goal is to model an example of civil, reasoned, and engaging conversations about some of the most controversial issues of our times. I am immensely grateful to Jon King and Peter Christian for welcoming a philosopher on their show, and giving me a chance to “reach across the isle”.
