The project is an anthropological investigation in to the uncertainties and negotiations in highly specialized clinical settings and research encounters where professionals are concerned with tracing unambiguous signs of consciousness in patients with severe brain injury.

Mette Terp Høybye is PI on the project and is joined by Lise Marie Andersen and Hanne Bess Boelsbjerg, as postdoc researchers on the project. So please welcome a new face to the IMC, Hanne Bess, and we are happy to keep Lise Marie onboard as a valued IMC colleague.

The project is funded by the Carlsberg Foundation and runs from 1 April 2019 until 30 September 2021.
