Environmental and animal ethics, relational value, tensions between individuals and systems, naturalism and enactivism.
Philosophy, research, writing
CorradoFizzarotti
I am a philosopher and writer, and a postdoctoral research fellow at the Institute of Clinical Physiology of the Italian National Research Council in Pisa. My work concerns relations among humans, other living beings and the environment, alongside data work and communication in epidemiological research.
Calvino, forms of memory, and the relations between cognitive processes, stories and imagination.
Population studies, adolescence, addictions, shared ontologies, data curation and communication of research findings.
