Postdoc
Guido Löhr

Entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily” – William of Ockham
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
I received my Ph.D. in May 2020 from Ruhr University Bochum and École Normale Supérieure, Paris (Institut Jean Nicod). I hold master's degrees in philosophy (HU Berlin) and cognitive science (Berlin School of Mind and Brain). My postdoc project deals with the notion of commitment and its many applications in the social sciences, philosophy, and philosophy of technology, like directed rights (e.g., of robots) and socially disruptive technologies with respect to conceptual change.
