His primary appointment began in 2018, and he currently holds a guest professorship at Leibniz University Hannover (2024–2025). He specializes in philosophy of science, cognitive neuroscience, and climate science, focusing on conceptual engineering, exploratory experimentation, and interdisciplinary scientific practices. Haueis holds a PhD from Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg (2018) and completed postdoctoral research at institutions including the University of Pittsburgh and the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences.

His research integrates philosophy of science with empirical studies in neuroscience and climate science, emphasizing concepts like multiscale modeling, mechanistic explanation, and the societal implications of scientific concepts. He has organized workshops on topics such as brain organization and climate policy, reflecting his commitment to bridging academic disciplines. Teaching responsibilities include graduate seminars on philosophy of psychedelics, climate science, and science-policy interfaces.

Haueis’ publications span peer-reviewed journals like British Journal for the Philosophy of Science and Philosophy of Science, addressing themes such as conceptual patchwork frameworks, climate crisis terminology, and neural function theories. His work often critiques and rethinks traditional scientific concepts to address contemporary challenges in both natural and social sciences.
