Ignacio Ojea Quintana

Ignacio Ojea Quintana serves as Assistant Professor at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich's Faculty of Philosophy, Philosophy of Science and Religious Studies within the Chair of Philosophy of Science. He joined LMU in 2022 after a three-year research fellowship at the Australian National University's School of Philosophy.

His academic foundation includes a PhD in Philosophy from Columbia University (2019), supervised by Philip Kitcher with focus on formal social epistemology, and prior Masters/BA degrees in Philosophical Logic from the University of Buenos Aires where he collaborated with the Buenos Aires Logic Group.

Ojea Quintana's research employs formal methodologies to examine digital technologies' impact on knowledge organization across scientific and public spheres. His work intersects Social Epistemology, Philosophy of Data Science, and Autonomous Systems Ethics, with significant contributions to social media network analysis of controversial movements. Current projects analyze Twitter dynamics in racial justice movements, ethical constraints in AI decision systems, and consensus formation in scientific modeling.

His 2021-2022 publications reveal an interdisciplinary trajectory bridging philosophy, computer science, and social sciences. Key trends include computational analysis of online discourse, formal modeling of group rationality under uncertainty, and ethical frameworks for AI systems. Works appear in high-impact venues including Nature Humanities and Social Sciences Communications and the AAAI/ACM Conference on AI, Ethics, and Society.

Ojea Quintana maintains active collaborations with the "Humanising Machine Intelligence" initiative (formerly at ANU) and the Buenos Aires Logic Group. His research program demonstrates sustained engagement with technology's societal implications through formal modeling approaches and empirical digital trace analysis.
