Personal statement:

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands, but in seeing with new eyes.”
– Marcel Proust

My voyage of discovery leads into the countryside of the mind, the nature of consciousness and the realms of the unconscious. My aim is to research the neuro-somatic mind-body system and the mechanisms of human consciousness. My way is the method of science on the basis of experimentation, documentation, careful & conscious interpretation and merciless doubt.

In the half year I spend here at the BI I want to accumulate philosophical considerations focused on the contemporary possibilities and problems of consciousness research.
