This talk dives deep into the feminism of Taylor Swift, one of the most influential artists of the 21st century.

Naja Hulvej Rod, Professor of Epidemiology and Director of the Copenhagen Health Complexity Center, and Morten Hulvej Rod, PhD, anthropology, Professor of health promotion and Director of the National Institute for Public Health have both worked with public health research for 20 years, but only started to work together when COVID-19 hit, and their living room became their shared office space.In their presentation they will explain how coming from two different backgrounds has fuelled the development of a new framework for interdisciplinary knowledge production in relation to complex public health issues, such as health inequalities, obesity, and mental health. They will explain how a stay at University of Amsterdam’s IAS led to new thinking and the establishment of collaboration with scholars from disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, public health, epidemiology, and medicine, which is now being integrated in ongoing work.

Could psychedelics be the game-changers in mental health treatment we’ve been waiting for?

The digital revolution has transformed the way we create, preserve, and access information, reshaping the role of archives in society.This talk explores the potential future of archives in the digital age, using one of the oldest philosophical archives and research institutes for philosophy in Germany – the Husserl Archives Cologne – as an example. Drawing on insights from phenomenology and digital humanities, it examines how digitalization challenges traditional notions of permanence, authenticity, and ownership. How do virtual repositories affect the human experience of accessibility and historical continuity? What implications does this have for cultural memory? About Thiemo BreyerThiemo Breyer is Professor of Phenomenology and Anthropology at the University of Cologne, where he also serves as Director of the Husserl Archives.
