Chenwei Nie

Hi there,

Welcome to my website!

I am a Teaching Fellow in Philosophy at the University of Warwick, and a member of the Warwick Mind and Action Research Centre (WMA). I also serve as a PhD Committee Member at the Research School of Psychology, Australian National University.

My research interests are in philosophy of psychiatry, philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and epistemology. I am the editor of the 'Delusions', 'Seemings', and 'Location of Pain' categories on PhilPapers, and in the editorial board of Chinese Philosophical Review.

Previously, I held a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship at the Jagiellonian University in Poland, and a part-time Research Assistantship at the WMA. I completed my PhD at Warwick in 2022, fully funded by a Chancellor's International Scholarship.

You can find me on the following platforms as well:
