Alexander Hehmeyer Associate Professor of Philosophy and associate professor of linguistics, neurobiology, and psychology and neurosciences at Duke University, Güven Güzeldere is a philosopher of mind who also does experimental work on the boundaries of unconscious processing in vision using functional magnetic resonance imaging. His theoretical studies are concerned with the nature of consciousness and qualia—the properties of sensory experience, as well as with questions relating to the neural correlates of consciousness, the phenomenon of deception in non-human animals, and the role of introspection in pain perception. Born in Turkey, he received an undergraduate degree from Bogaziçi University in Istanbul, master’s degrees in both computer science and in philosophy from Indiana University, and a Ph.D. in philosophy and symbolic systems from Stanford University in 1997. Dr. Güzeldere then joined the Duke philosophy faculty as an assistant professor and held an Andrew W. Mellon Assistant Professorship before being named to his present position. He currently serves as director of an interdiciplinary program called Exploring the Mind as well as the Duke in Turkey Study Abroad Summer Program. Dr. Güzeldere has been the recipient of fellowships awarded by the National Humanities Center, the Social Sciences Research Council, and the American Psychological Association. He is a past winner of Duke’s Richard K. Lublin Distinguished Teaching Award and of a James McDonnell Foundation Young Investigator Award. A past president of the North Carolina Philosophical Society, he is co-founder of the Association for the Scientific Study of Consciousness and formerly served on its board of directors. He has been editor-in-chief of the Stanford Humanities Review and associate editor of Psyche: International Journal for Research on Consciousness. He currently serves on the editorial board of Brain and Mind. In addition to publishing more than twenty articles in academic journals, he has co-edited three books, including (with Ned Block and Owen Flanagan) The Nature of Consciousness: Philosophical Debates (1997), and, most recently, two volumes published in 2005, (with Stefano Franchi) Mechanical Bodies, Computational Minds: Artificial Intelligence from Automata to Cyborgs (The MIT Press) and (with Gürol Irzik) Turkish Studies in the History and Philosophy of Science (Springer). Dr. Güzeldere is writing (with Murat Aydede) a new book entitled Sensing, Perceiving, Introspecting: Cognitive Architecture and Phenomenal Consciousness for Oxford University Press (OUP). He is working on another volume on consciousness for OUP’s Foundations in Philosophy series.
