One of my main interests is the role of experimental activity and values in
the production and assessment of scientific models .
The shift of focus, in epistemology and philosophy of science, from knowledge
as an object to the activity of knowing, of understanding, as situated and oriented, is also characteristic of
the study of perception, shifting from computation to enaction .
Another of my subjects of research is the mutual philosophical relevance of the philosophy of scientific practice
and the philosophical and
scientific understanding of perception.
