Theme

For decades, scientific studies of consciousness have focused on unravelling the mystery of conscious experience, primarily through the lens of neuroscience and experimental psychology. These studies have yielded invaluable insights, but there is also a growing recognition of the need for a more expansive perspective. In this conference, we take a bold step in that direction by placing embodied and phenomenological perspectives at the forefront. This shift invites us to consider the richness of conscious experience beyond conventional approaches, embracing a more holistic understanding of lived experience shaped through the deep entanglement of the brain, the body, and the world.
