Gregory Salmieri received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh in 2008.
His research focuses on ancient philosophy, epistemology, and ethics. One theme running through a number of his projects is the role played by theories of concepts or universals in epistemology. A second theme is the relation between virtue and self-interest. Much of his current work addresses these issues as they arise in Aristotle's thought.
