Curriculum vitae
Matteo Vagelli works in philosophy of science, historical epistemology, the historiography of science, and the history of philosophy of science. His research focuses on general philosophy of science, the philosophy of the social sciences, and the thought of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Ian Hacking.
He received his BA and MA in Philosophy from the University of Pisa and earned a PhD in Philosophy jointly from the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and the School of Advanced Studies Fondazione San Carlo. He has held research positions at the University of Chicago, Cambridge University, Goethe Universität Frankfurt am Main, the Centre Marc Bloch (Berlin), and the Fondation Maison des Sciences de l'Homme (Paris).
In 2015, he co-founded the international research network on historical epistemology (episthist.hypotheses.org), which today brings together more than 100 established and early-career scholars working in the history and philosophy of science. In 2017–2018, he held the Chair in French Contemporary Thought at the European University Viadrina (Frankfurt an der Oder).
In 2021 He was awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Postdoctoral Fellowship, based at Ca' Foscari University of Venice and Harvard University, for the project EPISTYLE (GA 101030646). The project developed a comprehensive historical and philosophical investigation of the concept of style, uncovering its epistemological significance for contemporary debates on scientific pluralism (unive.it/epistyle).
He is currently the Principal Investigator of SCIPLU, a three-year EU-funded research project exploring the concept of scientific pluralism through the notion of style. The project develops the framework of stylistic pluralism, grounded in the theory of styles of scientific reasoning, and investigates its theoretical foundations as well as its implications for the human and social sciences. Based at the Trust in Philosophy and Science (TIPS) Research Centre and led by Dr. Vagelli, SCIPLU builds directly on the results of his previous MSCA project, EPISTYLE, extending its style-based approach to scientific practice into a broader account of pluralism (unive.it/sciplu).
