Daniel Meling is a cognitive scientist and experience researcher. He obtained a joint master’s degree in Cognitive Science (University of Vienna and University of Ljubljana) and specialized in enactive theory and empirical phenomenological methods, including micro-phenomenology and neurophenomenology. His primary research interest is “reflexive awareness”: What is it to know knowing itself? He now further approaches this question as a doctoral student by employing micro-phenomenological interviews to exploring the experiential effects of DMT in study participants and experienced meditators.
