Knowledge and ResearchFollowing her PhD in 2004, Kristina has developed a strong interest in the standards of training and supervision in postgraduate research studies, and in the relationship of theory and practice within research, on which she has lectured internationally. The Experiential Knowledge Project & Conference (EKP)From 2005 to 2007, Kristina was leading the Experiential Knowledge Project as a Research Fellow at the University of Hertfordshire, UK. The project was concerned with the nature and role of knowledge, and in particular experiential knowledge in research. Kristina also organised the Experiential Knowledge Conference 2007 in collaboration with London Metropolitan University. The conference addressed the theme of "New Knowledge in the Creative Disciplines". Selected papers of EKC2007 are published in a special issue of the Journal of Visual Arts Practice Vol 6 (2), November 2007. EKP Special Interest Group on Experiential Knowledge (EKSIG)In recognition of her research on experiential knowledge in art and design, Kristina is currently leading the Special Interest Group on Experiential Knowledge, an initiative of the Design Research Society. EKSIG is concerned with understanding the nature and role of knowledge in research and professional design practice in order to clarify fundamental principles and practices of using design practice within research both with regard to research regulations and requirements, and research methodology. In collaboration with London Metropolitan University, EKSIG organised the International Conference EKSIG2009: Experiential Knowledge, Method and Methodology.Relevant PublicationsNiedderer, K. 2009.
