 | Mauricio Suárez (BSc. Astrophysics, Edinburgh, 1991; MSc., PhD. Philosophy, LSE, 1997) has held positions at Oxford, St. Andrews, Northwestern and Bristol Universities and is at present Associate Professor in Logic and Philosophy of Science at Universidad Complutense de Madrid. His main research interests lie in the philosophical foundations of physics (particularly quantum mechanics) and general epistemology of science, and he has published widely in both areas. He defends a broad kind of pragmatism that does not skew but rather aims to assimilate and appropriate for itself traditional realist notions such as representation, explanation, warrant, causation, disposition or propensity. He has been Visiting Scholar at the University of Sydney (2003), and at Harvard University (2007, 2009, 2011). During 2011-12 he is on sabbatical, as Professorial Fellow at the Institute of Philosophy (School of Advanced Studies, London University), and Research Associate at the Centre for he Philosophy of the Natural and Social Sciences (LSE).
