Mark received his Ph.D. from the University of Colorado (supervised by Robert Pasnau). His research focuses on early modern epistemology. His interests in epistemology regard belief control, epistemic or doxastic obligations, rationality, testimony, evidence, and the nature and status of faith. Regarding history, he is especially interested in Locke and Descartes, as well as some of their predecessors (especially Aquinas) and successors (especially Reid). He is also interested in environmental philosophy. His work has appeared in Synthese, the British Journal for the History of Philosophy, Archiv für Geschichte der Philosophie, Res Philosophica and Religious Studies, among others. Mark also serves as the editorial assistant for the annual publication, Oxford Studies in Medieval Philosophy.
