I am a philosopher of science and social epistemologist. In particular, I am interested in social dynamics in science and their influence on epistemic processes. In this context, I investigate epistemological questions related to the impact of information and communication technologies as well as the epistemic capacities of visual representations.

A note about my name.

This is how my name is written in German (my native tongue): Nicola Mößner. However, you might find it also written in the following ways: Nicola Moessner, Nicola Mössner, and rather seldom Nicola Moeßner. All of these variants of spelling are correct, but I prefer the first one.

I petition universities and research founding agencies to press for effective reduction of green house gas emissions and signed a commitment to refrain from unnecessary flying at Flying Less.
