Quentin Ruyant is a Post-doctoral Fellow at the Department of Philosophy, Universidade de Lisboa, and holds a PhD from Université Catholique de Louvain. His work focuses on scientific representation, scientific realism, quantum mechanics interpretations, and pragmatist approaches to science. He advocates for Modal Empiricism, a position that emphasizes empirical adequacy through situated modalities and inductive epistemology.
Key research areas include the debate on scientific realism, modal epistemology, and the interpretation of quantum mechanics. Notable contributions include extending Modal Empiricism to probabilistic knowledge and analyzing the role of indexicality in Bayesian reasoning. He critiques structural realism and explores perspectival realism's compatibility with mind-independent norms.
Recent publications address probabilistic empiricism, dual senses of scientific representation, and fine-tuning arguments in cosmology. His work bridges philosophy of science with metaphysics, emphasizing the interplay between theoretical models and empirical practice.
