Niculae-Gabriel Sandu#

Short biography by Ilkka Niiniluoto#


Niculae-Gabriel Sandu is a visible researcher on the European scene - he was the main proposer of the Eurocore programme Logic for Interaction, Computation, Communication, and Cognition launched by ESF in 2009. He has a very good publication record and he has made a strong impact on the field.

Niculae-Gabriel Sandu has held important academic positions in Finland, France and Belgium, and is very well connected to the research communities of Eastern European Countries (Romania, Croatia, Russia and the Czech Republic).

Niculae-Gabriel Sandu has held several important academic positions: professor at the University of Helsinki, invited professor at Paris 1, Sorbonne, and Directeur de recherche at CNRS, located at IHPST. During his period at CNRS he was also responsible for the logic programme at the Deparment of Cognitive Studies (DEC) of the Ecole Normale.

During the last ten years he has been invited each year as a plenary speaker to several major events in his field. For instance, he was a plenary speaker in the section of logic and computation of ECAP 6 (the European Conference of Analytic Philosophy, 2008). He will be the chairman of the section of logic of the next World Congress in Philosophy (Athens, 2013). Sandu has been the main proposer of the Eurocore project LOGICCC and is currently an associated partner to the ERC LINT (Logic for intelligent interaction).

Area Editor for logic and mathematics of the journal Synthese, members of the editorial board of Logic, Epistemology and the Unity of Science (Lille), New Perspectives on Games and Interaction (Amsterdam), Journal of Applied Logic, The Journal of Knowledge, Rationality and Action, Theoria, Logical Investigations (Moskow), Revista de Filosofie (Bukarest), coeditor of the Croatian Journal of Logic.

One of the three external referees for the Humboldt Foundation Chair of Excellence in Logic at the Ludwig Maximilians University of Munchen, October, 2009.

Niculae-Gabriel Sandu is an associated partner to the Eurocore project LINT. The intermediate Eurocore research report made on 15.02.2010 mentions:

LINT is itself a multidisciplinary enterprise. It draws from linguistics, philosophy, logic, computer science, game theory and the theory of social choice. The LINT CRP achieves multidisciplinary research by involving computer scientists (Aachen, Oxford), philosophers (Gothenburg, Paris) and logicians (Amsterdam, Tampere-Helsinki) and bringing them to work together. Several joint papers have been produced by joint efforts of members from these three disciplines. We mention under Question 9 the joint paper by Abramsky and Väänänen, combining computer science and logic to put forward a completely new idea in the study of dependence logic. It is also worth mentioning the joint work of Sevenster and Sandu on one hand and of Mann and Galliani on the other hand, combining ideas from game theory, philosophy, mathematics and logic to create interesting new theories of probabilistic IF and dependence logic.
