Team & Cooperations
The Laboratory for Cognitive Research in Art History (CReA) research team consists of a number of post-doctoral and pre-doctoral researchers, student assistants and interns who combine art historical expertise with empirical competence. Collaborations with guest researchers from international universities as well as long-term institutional partnerships with the EVALab at the Department of Psychology at the University of Vienna and the Chair for Human-Centered Technologies for Learning at the Technical University of Munich enable fruitful cooperations beyond university and disciplinary boundaries.
