Nominator's project description
Prof Haggard is an internationally known researcher in the psychology of human action with ground-breaking research in the experimental neuropsychology of human volition and voluntary action. He has advanced the study of free will beyond its purely conceptual origins towards an experimental and more mechanistic level and developed and advanced neuroscientific methods in combination with experimental paradigms to address questions of consciousness and action. In Germany, his research will be devoted to the problem of conation and to the qualitative character of conscious mental states. |
