​Máté Veres
(IPA: [ ˈmaːteː vɛrɛʃ]

I am a Research Fellow (collaborateur scientifique, ​SNSF Ambizione) at the University of Geneva's Department of Philosophy. I previously worked at the University of Toronto,
 the University of Geneva, and the University of Hamburg.
​
I study primarily ancient philosophy, with a focus on Hellenistic epistemology and ethics. I am currently at work on a project concerning the notion of technê in Hellenistic philosophy. My previous project focused on Hellenistic philosophical theology and its interaction with ancient Scepticism.
