We combine phenomenological theory with methods from the cognitive and social sciences to carry out philosophical and theory-driven qualitative research into human experience.
Our research program has three core strands:
- We develop methodological tools — refining existing ones, designing new ones, and testing their limits.
- We disseminate those methods through training and collaboration, so that other researchers can put them to use.
- We apply them in collaboration with colleagues from other groups and fields to answer questions about the complexities of human experience.
Right now, we’re carrying out research on topics ranging from depression, pain, and ecological anxiety to freediving and psychotherapy.
Our research projects and activities have been funded by the following institutions:
- The European Union
- Independent Research Fund Denmark
- The Carlsberg Foundation
- EPICUR, the European University Alliance
- The Ministry of Culture Denmark
- The Danish Chiropractor’s Association
- Filadelfia Epilepsy Hospital
- The SDU Climate Cluster
- The Danish Institute for Advanced Study
