Philipp Kanske

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Philipp Kanske (* 1980 in Dresden) is a German psychologist and neuroscientist.[1] He is professor at Technische Universität Dresden.[2] His research focuses on the neuronal foundations of emotion, emotion regulation and emotion understanding (empathy, perspective-taking), as well as their changes in mental disorders. Philipp Kanske is speaker of the Junge Akademie.[3]

Life and career[edit]

Kanske studied psychology at Technische Universität Dresden and at the University of Oregon with scholarships of Evangelisches Studienwerk Villigst and the Fulbright Commission. He received his doctorate with summa cum laude from Leipzig University in 2008. He then worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Central Institute of Mental Health in Mannheim and at Heidelberg University, where he did his habilitation in 2014. From 2012 to 2017 he was a group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig.
