Postdoctoral researcher (personnal website).

Anni Bukowski

Anni Bukowski is a PhD student in the project Is More Always Better? The Future of Climate Change Science. With a background in philosophy of science, she is interested in the way in which uncertainty is represented and communicated across scientific contexts. She currently focuses on the various dimensions of uncertainty in climate modelling, bringing together philosophy of probability and contemporary debates on values in science. Her work investigates the roles of epistemic and non-epistemic values, as well as expert judgment, in shaping scientific and modelling practices, and examines the epistemic status of the probabilistic tools climate scientists use to communicate model results.
