I am sometimes asked how I pronounce my name. The phonetic spelling is “rah-veet doh-than”. The German pronunciation comes close, you can hear what it sounds like by clicking the “listen” icon in the "German" tab here.

About my work

​

I mainly work in epistemology, philosophy of science, and philosophy of machine learning. 

​

I have additional interests in feminist philosophy and philosophy of religion.

My main research program is about the concept of evidence. I develop a view in which what is evidence for what is constituted through social deliberation.
