II.6 Research Visits

II.6.1 IZEW, Tbingen
From October 1, 2001 until April 1, 2002, I have carried out a research visit at the Interfakultres Zentrum fr Ethik in den Wissenschaften of the Eberhard-Karls Universitt in Tbingen (Germany). This visit has been supervised by Prof. Dr. Dietmar Mieth and Prof. Dr. Marcus Dwell. During these six months, I have carried out a detailed bibliographical study as part of my Ph.D. research and I have been able to discuss the results of my study with other members of the Centre during two presentations. Furthermore, I was able to exchange ideas with various researchers who work in the same field, during many individual conversations. The results of this visit were twofold. (1) It improved the quality of my Ph.D. research to a significant extent. (2) It brought me into contact with various interesting researchers. Even today, four years later, there are still interesting contacts with people who then worked in Tbingen, but are now related to e.g. Utrecht (Prof. Dr. Marcus Dwell), Harvard en Frankfurt (Prof. Dr. Hille Haker) and Berlin (Dr. Sigrid Graumann). Via the Euresco-conferences, e-mailcontacts and guest lectures we continue exchanging ideas.

II.6.2 Hastings Center, New York

From April 30, 2006 to June 2, 2006, I carried out a research visit at the Hastings Center in New York (US). This visit has been supervised by Prof. Dr. Daniel Callahan, co-founder of the Center and professor at Yale and Harvard University. During this 9

Curriculum Vitae Yvonne Denier dd. October 7th, 2010 visit I carried out a detailed bibliographical study related to the following question: Can we set limits to health care by appealing to arguments based on a certain conception of human nature and human finitude without causing problems for the elderly and congenitally handicapped? During this visit, I was able to study Daniel Callahans natural-life-spanapproach and discuss the results of my research both with Prof. Callahan himself and with other members of the Center, via individual meetings as well as two presentations. An important addition to this research visit has been given by the possibility of discussing these ideas with Eva Kittay, professor at the State University of New York and an expert in philosophy of disability. Discussing my ideas with her enabled me to think through certain problems of justice for the irreversibly dependent and how to avoid these.

III.6.3 TOLEDO
TOLEDO started in September 2001 as a university wide e-learning project.

In the courses in which I assisted between 1999 and 2006, TOLEDO was mainly used as a means to spread information among the students (syllabi, texts, slides, assignments, guidelines, scores, office hours, etc.). 2000-2001: preparing implementation of TOLEDO for the course Inleiding tot de Wijsbegeerte, 1 year BA Economics and Commercial Engineer, course holder: Prof. Dr. Toon Vandevelde. 2001-2006: implementation of TOLEDO for the courses Inleiding tot de Wijsbegeerte, 1 year BA Economics and nd Commercial Engineer, Moraalfilosofie met inbegrip van deontologie, 2 year MA Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Sciences, and Ethiek en Economie, MA Philosophy and Economics and Applied Economics, Adv.
