Her interdisciplinary affiliations include:

• Computing Systems for Data-Driven Science (Affiliated Member)

Vogt's research bridges ancient and contemporary philosophy through investigations into ethics, normative epistemology, and value theory. She examines fundamental questions about the nature of values, the epistemic status of knowledge and truth as values, and conceptualizations of living well. Her work demonstrates how classical philosophical frameworks inform modern debates in moral philosophy and epistemology.

She has been honored with the Columbia Distinguished Faculty Award for exceptional scholarly contributions. Prior academic appointments include teaching positions at Humboldt University Berlin's Philosophy Department and Charité Medical School, the Class of 1932 Fellowship in Classical Philosophy at Princeton University, and masterclasses at the University of Cambridge and Hochschule für Philosophie in Munich.
