Rasmus Jaksland
Om
Jeg har ph.d. i filosofi fra NTNU. Fra Københavns Universitet har jeg en bachelorgrad og mastergrad i filosofi samt en bachelorgrad og mastergrad i fysikk. Før jeg begynte ved NTNU, var jeg tilknyttet Universitetet i Agder, Københavns Universitet og Princeton University.
Jeg er prosjektleder for forskningsprosjektet Entanglement Metaphysics without Spacetime (EMwiS), et Forskerprosjekt for tidligkarriereforskere finansiert av Norges forskningsråd. Prosjektet søker å etablere et nytt paradigme innen metafysikk der sammenfiltring (entanglement) overtar romtidens grunnleggende rolle i våre forståelser av verdener, individuering, endring og naturlover.
Jeg er medlem av forskningsgruppen Cognition, Meaning, and Reality og deltar i NTNUs Stjerneprogram (2026–2030).
Forskning
Mye av forskningen min er drevet av spørsmål som oppstår i skjæringspunktet mellom vitenskap og filosofi. Dette omfatter metafysiske og erkjennelsesteoretiske problemstillinger innen kvantefysikken, særlig slik de knytter seg til romtidens (påståtte) emergens kvantegravitasjonsteorier og dens forbindelse til kvantesammenfiltring (entanglement). Forskningen min omfatter også metodologisk arbeid om naturalisme, og mer spesifikt hvordan vitenskap kan og bør informere metafysikk samt teori i sosialvitenskapene. I tillegg til dette har jeg interesse for sosial epistemologi, med fokus på vitnesbyrd, uenighet og aggregering av oppfatninger.
Entanglement Metaphysics without Spacetime
The project’s central hypothesis is that a world is made by these entanglement relations instead of relations in space and time. Based on this, the project develops spacetime-free accounts of individuation, change, and laws of nature.

Veiledning
Jeg veileder prosjekter innen vitenskapsfilosofi og vitenskapelig kreativitet; analytisk metafysikk med vekt på metafysisk metode; bruk av fysikk i andre felt spesielt bruk av kvantemekanikk i sosialvitenskap; samt sosial epistemologi med vekt på uenighet og spillteori. Jeg veileder oppgaver på alle nivåer. Det er lav terskel for å ta kontakt for drøfte mulighetene for å skrive en oppgave med meg som veileder.
