Axel Carmona

PhD Student in Philosophy of Cognitive Sciences

Short biography

I am a PhD student in Philosophy (specializing in the Philosophy of Mind, Language, and Logic) at UNAM. Before my PhD, I received an MA in Philosophy of Science (with a focus on the Philosophy of Cognitive Sciences) and a BA in Philosophy, both from UNAM.

My research primarily focuses on the metaphysics of the mind, especially the hard problem of consciousness. I investigate two main areas: first, grounding physicalism and its relations with the notions of essence and modality; and second, the transparency thesis of phenomenal concepts and its compatibility with physicalism.

Additionally, I have interests in the philosophy of language and the general philosophy of science.
