Dr. Hardcastle works in the areas of philosophy of mind and cognitive science.
Aside from the more traditional issues in philosophy of mind, and related concerns
in epistemology and metaphysics, she is also interested in how (and whether) psychological
phenomena (such as consciousness, memory, perception, and so on) relate to underlying
neurophysiology, what these relations tell us about the mind, ourselves as cognitive creatures,
and the possibility of a cognitive science. Valerie is currently Associate Dean in the College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences.
