Dr. Michael Horswell engages in conversation with Marina Banchetti, Ph.D.,
a professor of philosophy in FAU’s Department of Philosophy. They discuss Dr. Banchetti's expertise in the philosophy of science and how humans' perception of nature and the universe has evolved over time.

We invite you to join us as we take an in-depth look at the science and history of philosophy.

Professor Banchetti’s research focuses on phenomenology, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, and philosophy of science with a recent focus on the history and philosophy of chemistry. She has recently published two books on these topics: The Chemical Philosophy of Robert Boyle: Mechanicism, Chymical Atoms, and Emergence (Oxford University Press, 2020) and From the Atom to Living Systems: A Chemical and Philosophical Journey into Modern and Contemporary Science (Oxford University Press, 2023), co-written with the Italian chemist Giovanni Villani.
