We are happy to announce this interdisciplinary symposium organized by the Copenhagen University Network of Science and Religion and The Danish Science-Theology Forum, Aarhus University. The aim is to discuss the highly debated phenomena consciousness, mysticism and solitude from psychological, theological, philosophical and neuroscientific perspectives.
