Abstract tba

Sophie Kikkert is a postdoctoral researcher at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP), LMU Munich. Her work connects social philosophy, modal epistemology, metaphysics, and practical rationality. She focuses on how social contexts affect people’s access to their own abilities, what options they should rationally represent given their beliefs about those abilities, and developing a new theory of disability that incorporates embodiment and normative aspects of abilities. Recent publications include critiques of disability models in Topoi (2024) and contributions on epistemic challenges in self-knowledge for the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (2025).
