About me

Welcome! I’m Gabriel Târziu, a philosopher specializing in the philosophy of climate science, epistemology, the philosophy of science, and the philosophy of mathematics. Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (LMU Munich), where my research focuses on the epistemological particularities of understanding in climate science.

Beyond this, I have a broad interest in scientific understanding and explanation, the applicability of mathematics to the physical world, and ontological debates in the philosophy of mathematics. Before joining the MCMP in November 2022, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Romanian Academy and held research fellowships in Munich, Brussels, Essen, and Ghent.

Philosophy is more than a profession for me—it’s a way of life, driven by a deep need to explore, to question, and to understand the world around me. This may sound cheesy, but it is how I feel.
