Gregory Wheeler (born 1968) is an American logician, philosopher, and computer scientist, who specializes in formal epistemology.[1] Much of his work has focused on imprecise probability. He is currently an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the LMU Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy,[2] and has held appointments at Carnegie Mellon University,[3] the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin,[4] and the New University of Lisbon.[5] He is a member of the PROGIC[6] steering committee, the editorial board of Synthese,[7] and is the editor-in-chief of Minds and Machines. He obtained a Ph.D. in philosophy and computer science from the University of Rochester under Henry Kyburg.[8]
