Greetings. I am Brazilian PhD student currently working at the intersection of the philosophies of mind, psychology and psychiatry. My research has focused on self-deception and monothematic delusions with the aim of determining whether and how these phenomena pose a problem for belief ascription and for strong views of rationality (e.g. radical interpretation).

My username is transliterated as bodhicitta, a Buddhist concept meaning (roughly) "mind of awakening". I chose this word as a username so it could serve as a reminder.
