Project outcomes

This fellowship allowed an individual to travel to sites across our network in order to undertake a placement for up to two months. This funding was for academics in the field of phenomenological psychopathology or allied fields, who wanted to develop collaborations with leading researchers, transform their careers and shape the direction of future research. International Exchange Fellows had the opportunity to work with international colleagues, gain vital experience in multi-/inter-disciplinary working and extend their international networks. We provided a £3000 stipend per International Exchange (IE) Fellow to cover travel, accommodation and any visa costs. 

While we encouraged applicants to consider choosing one of the existing Network members, applicants were welcome to nominate an alternative suitable institution if there was interest in becoming a member of our Network.

Awardees

Marucela Uscamayta Ayvar

Marcela Juana Uscamayta Ayvar is a psychologist and neuroscientist born in Cusco, Peru. She belongs to the indigenous population of Cusco, descendants of the Inka people, and her mother language is Kechwa.  She currently works as a research associate in the Laboratory of Brain Development, Modulation and Repair within the Glenn Biggs Institute for Alzheimers and Neurodegenerative Diseases at the University of Texas Health San Antonio. For the International Exchange Fellowship, Marucela travelled to the University of Florence to work with Prof. Giovanni Stanghellini.  

Luca Fasciolo Maschião

 Luca Fasciolo Maschião is a training psychiatrist at Santa Casa de São Paulo Medical School and an early career researcher on phenomenological psychopathology. Luca is interested in linguistics, psychopathology, and LGBTQIA+ health, but is also deeply curious about literature and music. Luca travelled to Ghent University to conduct research with Prof. Jasper Feyaerts.

 “I arrived in Ghent at the beginning of May 2023 as advised by Professor Jasper Feyaerts, sponsor of my exchange program. Professor Feyaerts and the entire Department of Psychoanalysis and Clinical Consulting welcomed me warmly and involved me in various activities. For two months I attended weekly lab meetings where we discussed research ideas from all department members, many of whom are working within a phenomenological framework. During one of these meetings, I presented my ongoing theoretical work on the experience of language and psychosis. Additionally, I had the opportunity to attend several lectures delivered by Professor Louis Sass, who was a visiting professor at UGent. I gained valuable networking opportunities and received career and research insights from Professor Sass.

I also attended and presented at the Too Mad to Be True II Conference which took place in the rooms of Museum Dr. Guinslain, situated in an XIX century asylum with unique architecture envisioned by Dr. Joseph Guinslain himself. The conference provided another great opportunity for networking with researchers in the fields of philosophy, psychopathology and mad studies from all over Europe, also with a few participants from other continents. I presented a talk on phenomenology-oriented psychopharmacology, a topic I’ve been working on with our research group in São Paulo, Brazil, under the supervision of Professor Guilherme Messas.

The exchange experience was very rich in learning opportunities, but also made me aware of the many possibilities for an academic career in the field of phenomenological psychopathology and its very exciting combinations of philosophy, psychiatry, psychology and anthropology. I’d like to thank the RPP for this amazing opportunity.”

Application process

Applicants were required to submit:

• A letter from the proposed host institution within our network in support of their application, stating their agreement to host the fellowship.
• A 750-word written proposal or a 5-minute video explaining what they will gain from the fellowships (skills, networks, new disciplines, etc.) and the outputs they planned to produce. 
• A CV and a 100 word biography
• A spend profile, estimating what the £3000 would be used for, including quotes for hotel costs, travel costs, visa costs etc. 

Applicants had to hold a PhD in a relevant field or have equivalent research or lived experience. Abstracts were reviewed by members of the Renewing Phenomenological Psychopathology team and our international advisory board.  Research had to be within the remit of renewing phenomenological psychopathology. We were particularly interested in submissions that adopted an interdisciplinary approach to phenomenological psychopathology.

An important aspect of this project is to diversify the field of Phenomenological Psychopathology. We encouraged applications from the widest range of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences to maximise innovation in the field. We were particularly keen to receive submissions from female applicants, early career researchers, those with lived experience and researchers from the global south/non-WEIRD (western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic) countries. 

Workshops and knowledge exchange events aimed to bring together international and interdisciplinary partners to collaborate and to develop new methodologies in phenomenological psychopathology. Two awards of up to £3000 were offered for in-person workshop, which are used to cover organisational expenses (e.g. the speakers’ travel expenses, accommodation and catering). Virtual workshops receive operational support from the project team for their organisation and delivery, as well as input and direction from the project leaders.  Following the completion of the knowledge exchange event, awardees are required to submit a 750-word summary detailing the outputs of the event.

The Workshop and Knowledge Exchange Award gave our online workshop Camouflaging: Philosophical and Clinical Perspectives, held on September 28 & 29, 2023 extraordinary visibility. We were able to attract a handful of distinguished keynote speakers and received a considerable number of responses to our CfP, through which we recruited excellent speakers for shorter talks. Given the event’s great success, we decided to plan a second edition titled Camouflaging: Enacting Familiarity, which will take place online on September 26 & 27, 2024. The 2024 edition will feature speakers from the previous workshop and several new invited participants. Our aim is to establish a tradition of meeting online once per year. Information about our workshop can be found on our website. We are currently preparing a revised manuscript for a leading journal at the intersection of philosophy and psychology…(and will soon) post our paper on camouflaging in autism and Borderline Personality Disorder, which developed out of our cooperation fostered by the Renewing Phenomenological Psychopathology Project. 

We provided a £1500 stipend for researchers in phenomenological psychopathology, or other allied disciplines, who wanted to spark new ideas in the field by organising a sandpit event. A sandpit event is one where academics from disparate academic and institutional backgrounds collaborate in creative ways over a set period of time. The provided funding can be used for either online or in person support. The goal of such an event is to generate innovative, interdisciplinary research groups and projects under a given theme. Under this project, the sandpit event would (either online or in-person) bring together interdisciplinary researchers (for example, from the humanities, social sciences, lived experience, clinical practice) outside of phenomenology and mental health to expand the disciplines in the group, and to develop new groupings and responses to our problem of renewing and reinvigorating phenomenological psychopathology.

Applicants had to hold a PhD in a relevant field or have equivalent research or lived experience.  An important aspect of this project is to diversify the field of Phenomenological Psychopathology. We encouraged applications from the widest range of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences to maximise innovation in the field. We were particularly keen to receive submissions from female applicants, gender diverse applicants, early career researchers, those with lived experience of mental health difficulties, and researchers from the global south/non-WEIRD (western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic) countries.

Following the completion of the interdisciplinary expansion sandpit, awardees were required to submit a 750-word summary detailing the outputs of the event.

Some of our Award Winners include:

Rosa Ritunnano

Rosa Ritunnano is Consultant Psychiatrist in a specialist Early Intervention in Psychosis Service in the UK, and a joint doctoral researcher at the Universities of Birmingham and Melbourne. Her research explores the experience and meaning of delusions in psychosis from multiple disciplinary perspectives, focusing on the applications of phenomenology across psychiatry, psychology, philosophy and linguistics.  

Jeannette Littlemore

Jeannette Littlemore is a Professor of Applied Linguistics in the Department of English Language and Linguistics at the University of Birmingham. Her research focuses on the role played by figurative language in the sharing of emotional experiences. She also explores the role played by metaphor and metonymy in language learning in cross-cultural communication and language learning. 

Anke Maatz 

After an MD in experimental attachment theory, Anke joined the Psychiatric Hospital, University of Zürich for clinical training in psychiatry and psychotherapy and a Postdoc position in an interdisciplinary project on the conceptual history of ‘schizophrenia’.  In 2020, she started her own research group Humanities in Mental Health at the hospital, where she is also involved in implementing participatory research.  

Rosa, Jeanette and Anke, together with Julian Hofman, University of Zürich, organised Delusions at the Intersection, 26-27^th February 2024, at Psychiatrische Universitätsklinik Zürich.

The project network aims to be truly global and to generate exchanges and transmission of knowledge between different parts of the world. Translational funding is designed to pursue these goals and to progress the development of novel, innovative exchanges relevant to the project. The Award is established to support translations of key writings in phenomenological psychopathology (both historical and contemporary) into the multiple languages used by the group, with a particular emphasis on ensuring these texts are available to researchers in LMIC and the Global South. The payment rate was £250 per 1,000 words and we accepted proposals of translations of texts in the range of 1,000 to 10,000 words. We aimed to fund a total of 40,000 words over the course of the project, and to help successful applicants to publish their translations for the project with open access, in line with Wellcome policy, and/or we will host these translations on our project website.

Some of our Award Winners include:

Jae Ryeong Sul

Jae translated “Findings in a Case of Schizophrenic Depression” (1958) by Eugene Minkowski from its English Translation into Korean. 

Phenomenological psychopathology has gained traction among South Korean scholars, and it has sparked vibrant debates across various disciplines. In nursing research, discussions have centred on the applicability of phenomenological methods in empirical research (Kim et al., 2020). In philosophy, much research has sought to clarify the relationships between phenomenology and psychopathology (Lee, 2006, 2016, 2019; Chin, 2007; Lee, 2018; Kim and Song, 2014). In psychiatry, clinicians at Seoul National University Hospital have translated the ipseity disturbance model into readily accessible terms (Paek and Kang, 2011). While theoretical endeavours are crucial for clarifying the central tenets of phenomenological psychopathology, I believe that it is essential to maintain focus on its primary aim: understanding a person living with mental disorders. I chose to translate “Findings in a Case of Schizophrenic Depression” (Minkowski, 1958) as it illustrates phenomenological psychopathology at work. This article is a product of his two-month period living alongside his patient. In it, he articulates the coexistence of seemingly conflicting realities within the patient’s world. By carefully attending to the lifeworld of his patient, Minkowski systematically describes the complexity of the patient’s conflicting attitudes and provides a nuanced account of his delusion. As such, the selected text not only emphasises the primary aim of phenomenological psychopathology in understanding a person but also provides invaluable insight into achieving this understanding. I hope the translated text contributes to the ongoing discussions and debates among South Korean scholars.

Meena Dandha & Daljit Ami

Meena Dandha & Daljit Ami received the translation award to translate a paper “Fanon on cadavers, madness and the damned” into Punjabi. They are in the process of publishing their translation and we will post it here once it is out.

Marcelo Lopes

Marcelo translated Matthew Ratcliffe’s article The Feeling of Being (Journal of Consciousness Studies, 12, No. 8–10, 2005, pp. 45–63), from English into Portuguese. The translated text has been submitted to Ekstasis: Journal of Hermeneutics and Phenomenology, and will be published shortly. We will add a link to the published version once it is out.

Nathalia de Avila

Translating the chapter "Phenomenology of Temporality and Dimensional Psychopathology" by Fuchs and Pallagrosi into Portuguese was a significant endeavour, funded by the Renewing Phenomenological Psychopathology award. The text has been submitted and I consider this work to be of great importance. The phenomenological tradition is very strong in South America; however, in Brazil, it is predominantly centred on Husserl and Heidegger. This translation will provide Brazilian readers with access to new phenomenological perspectives applied to psychopathology, thereby broadening the understanding of the relationship between lived temporality and mental disorders, such as borderline disorder, schizophrenia and melancholic depression."

The text is under review. We will add a link to the publication once it is out.

The Small Grant Award was available until April 2023.  It offered seed-corn funding that allowed a team of scholars, across disciplines and countries, to form around a particular research topic and to develop new work that integrated different disciplines and accounts of lived experience of mental disorder. The aim was to enable a group of, for example, researchers, clinicians, academics in the humanities and experts by experience to pursue substantial competitive research leading to publication and/or work towards major grant applications.

Two Small Research Grants of £10,000 each were available, and two Virtual Writing Retreats supported by the Project Team.  

For example, the Small Grant could cover a six-month small scale project of an interdisciplinary, international Group, the running of which requires a part-time Research Assistant who could, for instance, offer support for short-term data collection or for the undertaking of fieldwork or of literature review that is needed for the purposes of the Group’s project.

Virtual Writing Retreats

The Small Grant holders will be offered a Writing Retreat that would enable effective follow-up from the Small Grants, and would provide dedicated time for the Group to focus on: either i). completing a significant output (i.e. major paper(s)); or ii). develop and write an application for substantial follow-up funding.

The Virtual Writing Retreats were to facilitate engagement across internationally located teams, academics at different career levels and those with parenting/caring responsibilities. The Retreats will receive operational support from the Project Team as well as input and direction from the Project Leaders. 

The Application Process

Applicants were required to submit:

• a 1500-word proposal or a 5-minute video that explains what the goals of the proposed project are and how they will be pursued, the different disciplines and perspectives that the project will bring together, what the group’s focus will be in addressing renewing phenomenological psychopathology, and what the expected outputs would be; please include an indicative breakdown of approximative/expected costs. (References and the Bibliography are not included in the 1500 words, but Bibliography should not be longer than one page.)
• a 100-word biography (if you are submitting as a team a biography would be required for each member).
• a brief one/two-page CV of one named Principal Applicant and of the other co-applicants. 

Applicants needed to hold a PhD in a relevant field, or have equivalent research or work experience, or have relevant lived experience.

An important aspect of this project is to diversify the field of Phenomenological Psychopathology. And so as with all elements of the RPP projecy, we encouraged applications from the widest range of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences to maximise innovation in the field. We were particularly keen to receive submissions from female applicants, gender diverse applicants, early career researchers, those with lived experience of mental health difficulties, and researchers from the global south/non-WEIRD (western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic) countries.

‘Co-production’ in mental health research acknowledges the valuable knowledge and expertise of people with lived experience of psychiatric illness or neurodiversity. It champions the production of joint research between experts by experience and academics/clinicians, who will contribute their insights equally (we recognise that clinicians and academics themselves may have lived experience of mental ill health, and those with lived experience may have existing clinical/academic skills).  

Through our co-production scheme, experts by experience will be linked with one or more researchers from our international network, with the aim of co-producing a piece of work on the theme of renewing phenomenological psychopathology. This work may involve, for instance, a renewing of the methodology used in phenomenological psychopathology, or drawing out aspects of the lived experience of psychiatric illness that have previously been obscured. 

Beyond the co-production of research, this scheme facilitates a mutual, two-way mentorship. All members of a collaborative team equally contribute with their knowledge and skillset (whether from perspective of their expertise from experience or academic expertise) towards the production of research. Researchers and clinicians have the opportunity to gain valuable insight from experts by experience, and experts by experience will learn about, or develop their knowledge, of research methodology, philosophy, phenomenology and academic practices.  

Through this scheme, we have encouraged co-production in research, and to amplify the voices of people with lived experience in the field of phenomenological psychopathology.  

Some of the Award Winners include: 

Valeria Bizarri & Janko Nesick  -- A phenomenology of autism

During her time in the Co-Production Scheme, Valeria undertook a research visit to Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia, and published the following publications:

• Phenomenological Psychopathology: Who, What and How? An analysis of key figures, advancements and challenges, Special Issue of Frontiers in Psychology (2023)

Pierrick Simon, Francesca Brencio, Susi Ferrarello  - A phenomenology of OCD

“We created a project called “Stuck on the puzzle. A philosophical inquiry on OCD”. The aim of this project is to increase the philosophical understanding of compulsions, obsessions and intense uncertainty (what is commonly referred to as “Obsessive Compulsive Disorder”). We sought to do that by establishing a philosophical dialogue with people who experience such phenomena. A dialogue inspired by phenomenological interviews, bracketing assumptions about the phenomenon and exploring the lived experience of people. The dialogue was a way to discover how philosophy can illuminate those experiences and vice-versa. You can find those interviews on our YouTube Channel,  Spotify Podcast and blog.
