The Reconceptualization of Sexual Difference

Postdoc Project

Life-scientists are currently seeking complex conceptions of sex and gender to improve research and health care for everybody. This project analyzes the concepts and metaphors that life-scientists are using to do this. The aim is to improve these conceptual tools for a dynamic and pluralist understanding of the sexes.

The project is part of a larger research horizon on integrating existential phenomenology and complex systems theories.
