He also teaches the Philosophy of modern physics and Epistemology to graduate students at the University Panthéon-Sorbonne. He was educated at several universities in Paris, where he received successively his M.D. in 1980, his Ph.D. in physics in 1985, and his “Habilitation” in philosophy in 1997. He worked as a research scientist in biophysics from 1978 to 1990. From 1990 onwards, he turned to the philosophy of physics. He edited texts by Erwin Schroedinger, and published a book entitled “Schroedinger’s philosophy of quantum mechanics”, Kluwer, 1996. He also published two books in French on quantum mechanics and on realism in science, in 1996 and 1998. More recently, he focused on the relations between the philosophy of quantum mechanics and the philosophy of mind, working in close collaboration with F. Varela. He published a book in French in 2000 and some subsequent papers on that topic. He is recipient of an award from the “Académie des sciences morales et politiques” (in 1997) for his work in the philosophy of quantum mechanics. He also has a long-term interest for indian philosophies, and is learning some Sanskrit to have better access to it.
