David Yates holds a PhD and MPhil in Philosophy from King’s College London, where, following a temporary lectureship at Sheffield, he was subsequently a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow and lecturer. He specialises in Metaphysics and the Philosophy of Mind, and his recent work focuses on the metaphysics of causation, in particular the causal roles of properties. David Yates has published papers on emergent downwards causation, dispositional essentialism and the causal exclusion problem for functionalists. He is currently conducting research on a range of issues, including: the distinction between powers and non-powers, the epistemological implications of quidditism, the status of geometric properties, and the prospects for a powers-based account of modality.
