Jürgen Landes

Jürgen Landes is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU) within the Faculty of Philosophy, Theory of Science, and Religious Studies, specifically in the Department of Philosophy of Science. He serves as the Principal Investigator (PI) of his research project on Evidence and Objective Bayesian Epistemology, focusing on formal epistemology, uncertainty, and rational belief formation. Landes' work bridges philosophy, statistics, and computer science, particularly in Bayesian epistemology and inductive logic.

His research interests include uncertainty quantification, philosophy of probability and statistics, inductive logic, Bayesian epistemology, scoring rules, accuracy-first epistemology, maximum entropy methods, decision theory, mechanism design, negotiations, and multi-agent systems. He has taught courses such as Environmental Philosophy, Philosophy of Probability and Statistics, and Rational Choice Theory at LMU.

Landes actively contributes to academic conferences and organizations, including co-organizing the 2020 Bayesian Epistemology workshop and the Foundations, Applications & Theory of Inductive Logic (FATIL) network. His research emphasizes applying formal methods to address challenges in evidence aggregation, causal assessment, and scientific reasoning.

Landes has published extensively on topics such as imprecise probabilities, evidence-based medicine, and the foundations of Bayesian epistemology. His work integrates interdisciplinary approaches to advance methodologies in data-driven science and decision-making under uncertainty.
