简历

My main philosophical interests lie in 19th, 20th and 21st century Continental philosophy, especially in phenomenology and hermeneutics. Over the last few years, my research was especially focused on phenomenology of pain and phenomenology of imagination. I have published widely in the field.

I am the recipient of the 2020-21 Research Excellence Award at CUHK. My book, The Phenomenology of Pain, was selected as the winner of two awards: the Edward G. Ballard Prize, awarded by the Center for Advanced Research in Phenomenology for an outstanding book in phenomenology, and of  the Hermes Award: A Book of the Year in Phenomenological Hermeneutics, awarded by the International Institute for Hermeneutics. I am also the recipient of numerous research fellowships and grants, including the Humboldt Research Fellowship for Experienced Researchers. On three separate occasions, I was also awarded the General Research Fund (GRF) grant.

I am one of the editors of the Social Imaginaries book series (Rowman & Littlefield), and an associate editor of the International Journal of Social Imaginaries (Brill Publishers)

Besides regularly offering courses in the history of philosophy, both ancient and modern, I also offer advanced lectures and seminars, both graduate and undergraduate, in aesthetics, phenomenology, hermeneutics, philosophical anthropology and philosophy of imagination. I am the recipient of the 2012-13 and 2017-18 Faculty Exemplary Teaching Award.
