About Me

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy and a Fellow of the Hong Kong Centre for Catastrophic Risk at Lingnan University in Hong Kong

My primary research interests lie at the intersection of philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and the philosophy of psychiatry. 

Topics I have published on include the feeling of bodily ownership, the metaphysics of bodily pain, the nature of delusional belief, the risk of AI suffering, and psychological mechanisms of psychedelic therapy.

I am currently interested in the nature of affective experience and its rational relationship with cognition.
