Cassandra Williams

Ph.D. Candidate • Philosophy • University of Toronto

I'm a Ph.D. candidate and SSHRC Doctoral Scholar in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Toronto.My research investigates the mind at its lower boundaries. I focus on distant organisms, such as worms and bacteria, to explore the relationship between life, agency, and sentience. I also have secondary interests in the philosophy of science, including neuroscience, artificial intelligence, medicine, and biology.I completed my M.A. in the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology, and my B.A. in Philosophy and Cognitive Science, both at the University of Toronto. From 2022-2023 I was a Ph.D. student in the Department of Philosophy at York University.
