PAOLO SANTORIO





I'm a philosopher at the University of Maryland, College Park. I work on modal language, causal reasoning, expressivism, intentionality, variables, future-oriented talk, scalar implicature, and a few more things.


Before coming to Maryland, I did my graduate studies at MIT, was a postdoc at the Australian National University, and was a faculty member at the University of Leeds and UC San Diego.


I'm originally from Italy and was born and raised in Turin, the homeland of some of the finest wines and best soccer in the country.
