About the Author: Fabrizio Calzavarini is a Post doc Researcher at the University of Bergamo, Italy, and is affiliated with the Center for Logic, Language, and Cognition, Turin, Italy. His research is organized into two interrelated streams. One stream falls at the intersection between the philosophy and neuroscience of semantics, focusing on the neural substrates of lexical competence. The other stream addresses philosophical issues in neuroscience more generally. He is the author of Brain and the Lexicon (Springer, 2020) and the co-organizer of Neural Mechanisms Online, a series of webinars and web-conferences in the philosophy of neuroscience.

Marco Viola is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Turin, Italy. His core interest is the philosophy of neuroscience, especially cognitive ontology and the neuroscience of emotion. Other interests include face perception, philosophy of mind and the social epistemology of science. He is the co-organizer of Neural Mechanisms Online, a series of webinars and web-conferences in the philosophy of neuroscience
