Profile
Medical doctor with clinical and research experience in functional disorders. Works at the intersection of medicine and philosophy with a focus on illness understanding. Current research explores epistemic boundaries between biomedical, psychological, and humanistic approaches, including the cultural and conceptual complexity of functional disorders and the value assigned to different forms of knowledge—both subjective and objective.
Job responsibilities
I primarily work with research in functional disorders and illness understanding, including epistemic and cultural boundaries between biomedical, psychological, and humanistic approaches. I also work as a clinical doctor and contribute to the development and evaluation of research designs, interdisciplinary communication, and teaching in medical philosophy, communication, and health science research.
