María Jimena Clavel Vázquez

I'm a philosopher working on the intersection of Philosophy of Cognitive Science, Philosophy of Mind, and Phenomenology. I am interested in situated approaches to cognition, in their notion of embodiment, and in what they can tell us about perception and imagination. My work has focused on the sensorimotor theory of perception.
​
I received my PhD from the St Andrews/Stirling Philosophy Graduate Programme in 2020. My thesis was supervised by Prof Michael Wheeler and Dr Alisa Mandrigin.
​
I recently joined the philosophy department at Tilburg University as an assistant professor. Before that I was a visiting lecturer at the Philosophy Department of Tartu Ülikool (the University of Tartu), in Estonia.
