Ian Phillips, Professor of Philosophy, University of Birmingham and Princeton University

I am a Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Brain Sciences at Johns Hopkins University. I am jointly appointed in the William H. Miller, III Department of Philosophy, and the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences. I am also Associate Principal Investigator in Chaz Firestone's Perception & Mind Lab, and a core member of the Foundations of Mind group.

My work lies at the intersection of philosophy and the mind/brain sciences. Particular interests include: the nature of perception; its relations to memory, imagination and belief; the scientific study of consciousness; and our experience of time. I am also currently writing an intellectual biography of the philosopher Gareth Evans.
