Since 2020 I'm a post doc at Lund University in the project Hard Choices, Climate Change and Moral Responsibility.
In 2019 I worked at the Institute for futures studies in the project Population and the Sustainable Development Goals: An Ethical Evaluation.
I have a Ph.D in practical philosophy since 2017. My thesis was called How It All Relates-Exploring the Space of Value Comparisons. The thesis aims at answering how we ought to account for hard cases of comparison, i.e., cases in which we experience two alternatives to be incomparable to each other. It is argued that vagueness can account for these cases and that concepts such as 'parity' need not to be introduced. The thesis was rewarded with Oscar II stipend for best thesis at the humanities department in Lund of 2017.
