Fearghus Tomas Horan is currently a PhD student at the William H. Miller III Department of Philosophy at Johns Hopkins University. His research is focussed on the German tradition in philosophy from Kant to Heidegger. In particular, he is concerned with how thinkers in this tradition carve out a specific role for philosophy in contrast to the empirical sciences.

Prior to coming to Johns Hopkins, Fearghus completed a BSc in Physics and Philosophy at King’s College London, and has taught in a wide variety of settings, including at the art@CMS project at CERN.
