Noga Arikha, raised in Paris and based in London and New York, is currently Visiting Fellow at the Institut Jean-Nicod, Paris. Previously she was Assistant Professor in the Humanities at the Bard Graduate Center, New York, and from 2003 to end 2005 she taught at the Bard College, NY, in the same capacity, and in 2002-03 was a Fellow at the Italian Academy for Advanced Studies in America, Columbia University, New York. She received from the Warburg Institute both her MA in Renaissance Studies (1996) and her PhD (2001), which traced a history of the mind-body problem in the late seventeenth century. Her current research likewise draws together the history of ideas and mind sciences. Her first book, Passions and Tempers: A History of the Humours, published in June 2007 by Ecco (HarperCollins), explores the history of humoural theories and analyses the status of scientific explanations of the human mind.
