Wessel Kroon

I'm a PhD candidate at Utrecht University working on logic and philosophy. My PhD project revolves around (informational) content: I focus on the analysis of various models of content and their impact on our theories of belief, relevance, and explanation. My research interests include: aboutness, (dynamic) epistemic/doxastic logic, bounded rationality, (epistemic) relevance, hyperintensionality, truthmaker semantics, granularity problems, paraconsistent logic and dialetheism. You can find additional information below.
