I am a PhD candidate in Philosophy at UC Berkeley. I work in philosophy of language, epistemology, and philosophical logic. My research focuses on what conditional sentences mean, what it is for something to matter, when evidence supports a conclusion, and what you can and cannot do with probabilities. I'm an external member of Ivano Ciardelli's ERC project on inquisitive modal logic at the University of Padova.
My PhD advisors are John MacFarlane, Seth Yalcin, and Ivano Ciardelli.
Before my PhD, I was a Fulbright scholar at Berkeley and MIT, and studied at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy and at the University of Oslo.
Here is my CV. You can reach me at ommundsen@berkeley.edu.
