Nominator's project description

Professor Schellenberg is well known internationally for her outstanding research in epistemology and the philosophy of mind. She has made important contributions to the epistemic force of experience, the situation-dependency of perception, the nature of perceptual content and the link between spatial perception and agency. In Germany, she continues her work on developing a unified account of the epistemological and phenomenological role of perception.
