Project: Research

Popular science description

Human brains are designed according to the same principles as other mammalian brains, yet they seem able to perform functions beyond the capacities of most other mammals. One of these is that humans are guided by conscious goals. We investigate human intentionality, how actions are represented in language and how the meanings of expressions of actions are represented in the brain.
