Peter Bokulich received his Ph.D. in philosophy
from the University of Notre Dame in 2003, and
from 2003 to 2005 was a post-doctoral fellow at
the Dibner Institute for the History of Science
and Technology at M.I.T. Dr. Bokulich’s
research focuses on the ontology of the material
world. He is particularly concerned with the metaphysics
of causation and reduction (especially as applied
to debates over the mind-body problem) and with
current attempts to extend the quantum concepts
of complementarity and duality into the realm of
quantum gravity.
