Research Statement

I like to think and I could describe myself as a science philosopher. Following a unique theoretical approach I either choose an unresolved challenging question or read only the facts and observations about a certain subject. After gathering all the information, without knowing anything about how others interpret these results, I try to building up my own understanding. Employing logical reasoning I try to develop a working model which is able to explain most of the observed phenomenon. When the hypothesis has been formed then I start to read other researchers’ work and compare, check, and modify my initial explanation. This approach is very time consuming and many times leads to the reinvention of the wheel. However the approach is a necessity if someone wants to attack a scientific question with an open mind. The scientific phenomena that I explored are:
