ROLE
I'm a member of the Research On Logical Expressivism (ROLE) group, led by Robert Brandom and Ulf Hlobil. We work on developing a conception of logic according to which logic is, as Brandom puts it in Making It Explicit, "the organ of semantic self-consciousness." For some idea of what that might mean (if this diagram here isn't self-explanatory), check out our website.
As far as my own contributions are concerned, most of them have involved bringing the formalism of bilateral logic, proposed by Timothy Smiley and Ian Rumfit, to bear on the sort of logical expressivism proposed by Brandom that is of principle concern to the group. The main presentation of this work is in this paper. For a more accessible introduction to it, see this paper I wrote for Michael Kremer's retirement conference. For a different perspective on my work, see this paper by Brandom. If you'd like to take a look at some of the stuff I'm currently doing in this regard, feel free to send me an email.

ISC
I'm a member of the International Sellars Colloquium (ISC), organized by Luz C. Seiberth. We meet monthly to discuss work by and about Wilfrid Sellars (pictured here, looking dapper).
For more info, check out our website, which contains a bunch of useful links if you're interested in Sellars.
If you're interested in my own take on Sellars's philosophy, check out my paper on Sellars's nominalism, my paper on Sellars's Kantianism, or this interview I did with Figure/Ground where I discuss Sellars's nominalism and various other aspects of his philosophy.

The PTS-Network
I'm a member of the Proof-Theoretic Semantics (PTS) Network, a group dedicated to the development of proof-theoretic semantics. For more info, see the website here.
Much of my work in proof-theoretic semantics has been dealing with bilateralism in proof-theoretic semantics. See especially this paper.
