About

Karim Baraghith

I am a philosopher of science at Leibniz University Hannover (Germany) and currently serve as the principal investigator for my DFG-funded project, "Graphs and Networks as Explanatory Tools in Cultural Evolutionary Theory."

My research expertise encompasses the interdisciplinary field of cultural evolution research (i.e., the evolution of science, technology & moral norms) and network/graph-theoretic explanations, with growing teaching experience in animal- and environmental ethics and other life sciences topics. My research investigates and builds formal models to explain how methods, tools, or values spread across science and society.
Additionally, I have a strong background in philosophy of biology, philosophy of physics, and bioethics.

I was born in 1985 in Western Germany (North Rhine-Westphalia) and pursued my studies
in Mainz, Düsseldorf and Hannover.

Currently, I reside in Berlin.
