Ben Martin is an Assistant Professor in Logic and the Philosophy of Science at the University of Padova, and the Principal Investigator for the PNRR project The Logical Science: How logics proves their worth through successful predictions (2022-25), funded by the European Union NextGenerationEU programme. Before that, he was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at the University of Bergen and the Principal Investigator for the European Union Horizon2020-funded project The Unknown Science: Understanding the epistemology of logic through practice. His research interests lie mainly within philosophical logic, the philosophy of logic, and epistemology, particularly the logical paradoxes, the epistemology of logic, and the relationship between logic and the sciences. His work has appeared in leading journals such as the Australasian Journal of Philosophy, Journal of Philosophical Logic, and Synthese, and currently has a manuscript under contract with Cambridge University Press on the epistemology of logic. He is also an external member of the Bergen Logic Group, of which he was a founding member, and the DFG-funded project “Abductive Methodology in the Philosophy of Logic”, and co-founder of the European Network for the Philosophy of Logic (Euphilo).
