Interdisciplinary Research

The thinker tank is a collective of authors and humanities scholars.

We are a vibrant network of critical thinkers, researchers, and knowledge communicators who engage with the deepest questions of the mind, cognition, and consciousness. Our approach is interdisciplinary and combines various scientific perspectives: philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, biology, sociology, anthropology, and cognitive sciences. We are convinced that a holistic understanding of mental processes is only possible through dialogue between these disciplines.

Our Mission

Knowledge, exchange, and reflection

A central concern of the thinker tank is not only to discuss scientific insights about the human mind within academic circles, but also to make them accessible to a broader public. Knowledge should not remain in ivory towers – it should be shared, discussed, and further developed. That’s why we place great importance on communicating complex content in a way that is both accessible and profound. We build bridges between science and society by making our findings available in various formats. Through strategic research projects, we explore consciousness, perception, and cognitive processes in collaboration with international institutions. Our public lectures and seminars present complex psychological, philosophical, and cognitive topics in an understandable way, with the aim of promoting critical thinking.

Curiosity & Critical Thinking

Not just providing answers, but also asking new questions

Our approach to research is shaped by curiosity, intellectual openness, and a willingness to critically question existing assumptions. We believe that science should not only provide answers but also raise new, deeper questions. In doing so, we place special emphasis on ensuring that our thinking does not get caught in dogmatic patterns. We promote a culture of continuous learning and critical reflection – especially when it comes to our own beliefs.

Our Goal

Opening new horizons in the exploration of the mind

The thinker tank is a space for thinkers, researchers, and anyone interested in the multifaceted questions of human consciousness. Our goal is to make knowledge tangible, to foster new insights, and to encourage open, interdisciplinary exchange. Whether you work in science yourself or are simply fascinated by the mysteries of the mind – we invite you to become part of this thinking space. Together, we can challenge existing boundaries, develop new perspectives, and deepen our understanding of the fascinating mechanisms of the mind.
