Profile
At ARRTI I am working on a number of inter- and transdisciplinary topics concerning the role of science in times of technological and societal transformation. Those topics include the implementation of ethics education in engineering and natural sciences study programmes and the development of innovative formats to foster more fruitful exchange between science, politics, and society.
In teaching and research, I am inspired by a wide range of theoretical and empirical perspectives from different disciplines, including economics, sociology, and political theory. The overarching philosophical perspective from which I tend to integrate those different approaches is philosophical pragmatism.
Research
Current Research Projects: Ethikkodex für Reallabore (Code of ethics for ‘real world labs’)
In my research I have so far focused on epistemological questions concerning methodological and theoretical pluralism in organisation studies, a very diverse field within the social sciences. I am furthermore interested in how the (critical) portrayal of natural sciences within the social sciences influences attitudes towards science in broader society.
