Anne Maquia Landin

  • Graduate Student

I am broadly interested in philosophy of physics, epistemology and their relationship with mathematics. More specifically, in philosophy of physics I am interested in philosophy of quantum mechanics (and, in particular, interpretations of quantum mechanics); in epistemology,  how formal methods can give insight into (or obscure) important features of our knowledge seeking enterprises; and with respect to mathematics, I am interested in the nature of mathematical modelling and inferences between these models and physical reality. I am also passionate about feminist epistemology and philosophy of science.
 
I am originally from the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Before coming to Pittsburgh, I took the Physics and Philosophy joint specialist program at the University of Toronto, where I also minored in abstract mathematics.
