Hi! My name is Anatolii, I'm a tutor at Cambridge Physiology, Development and Neuroscience Department and a philosopher of science at the UCL Science and Technology Studies Department. I hold a PhD in biology from the Université de Genève. Since 2014, I have been teaching and communicating biology-related topics, and since 2022, I have also been teaching, running workshops and reading groups on topics related to philosophy of science.
I have peer-reviewed publications in both subjects.
I have experience teaching biology in a practical lab environment, in a classroom and also through science communication. Since 2022, I have also been teaching topics related to philosophy of science. I have given philosophy workshops for scientists in summer schools in Valencia, Geneva and Paris.
An enthusiast of creative approaches, I devised a unique philosophy course for scientists, which I currently co-run at the Physiology Department in Cambridge.
I combine a two-way, pragmatic and exploratory approach. On the pragmatic side, together with the student, I define the specific studying goal, such as preparing for A levels or grasping a particular topic. However, I also make sure to facilitate and stimulate students' exploratory thinking to help them find their unique connection with the subject so that it becomes more relatable and intuitive to them.
Being an active researcher, I also make sure to bring in examples from the most recent topical research so that
