Lisa Vogt

FNS Research Fellow

Lisa Vogt is a scientific collaborator in the SNSF project "Higher-Order Metaphysics: Foundations, Motivations, and Hyperintensional Developments".

Her main research focus lies in metaphysics, especially at the intersections of metaphysics, logic, and the philosophy of science. The topics she is particularly interested in include (among many others) modality, essence, grounding, properties, laws of nature, truthmaker-semantics, mereology, and higher-order metaphysics. 

Previously, she has been a postdoctoral researcher in the project "Describing the World" at the University of Geneva, a lecturer ("Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin") at Freie Universität Berlin, a research fellow in the project "Being without Foundations" at the University of Lucerne and a doctoral researcher in the project "Diaphora" at LOGOS/University of Barcelona. She obtained her PhD with a thesis on the metaphysical foundations of dispositional essentialism, supervised by Sven Rosenkranz and Esa Díaz-León. Even before that, she completed an MA in philosophy at the Humboldt University of Berlin and a BA in mathematics at the University of Konstanz.
