Lorenzo Lorenzetti

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute of Philosophy at USI (Università della Svizzera italiana) in Lugano, Switzerland.

I work in philosophy of physics, philosophy of science, and metaphysics.

My current research focuses on the relations between scientific theories at different scales, the metaphysics of spacetime, and the foundations of thermodynamics.

From September 2027, I will lead the SNSF Ambizione project Effective Realism: A New Framework for the Ontology of the Sciences, based at USI.

I did my PhD at the University of Bristol. I have been a visiting researcher at NTU Singapore, the University of Pittsburgh, and King’s College London. I'm an affiliate member of the Geneva Symmetry Group.
