Borut Trpin is a postdoctoral fellow at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP) at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München and a principal investigator at the University of Maribor's Department of Philosophy. Starting October 2025, he will assume the role of Assistant Professor at the University of Ljubljana. His research focuses on formal epistemology and philosophy of science, with emphases on models of human reasoning, epistemic justification, and scientific disagreements. He employs computer simulations to explore these topics and serves as an associate editor for Acta Analytica.
Trpin holds a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Ljubljana (2018) and previously served as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Salzburg (2018-2019). His work bridges philosophical inquiry with computational methods, examining issues like coherence theory, Bayesian epistemology, and the dynamics of trust in social contexts. Recent research includes studies on scientific disagreements, conjunction fallacies, and the role of coherence in epistemic justification.
His publications span journals such as Philosophical Studies, Erkenntnis, and Synthese, reflecting his interdisciplinary approach. Key themes include methodological critiques (e.g., 'Against Methodological Gambling'), coherence metrics, and simulation-based analyses of deception and trust. Trpin’s future work includes assuming a permanent academic role at the University of Ljubljana while continuing collaborative research projects in mathematical philosophy.
