Happiness and Well-Being: Integrating Research Across the Disciplines was a three-year, $5.1 million project based at Saint Louis University, and was aimed at fostering dialogue and collaboration among well-being researchers across a wide range of disciplines, including the sciences, philosophy, and theology and religious studies. The project ran from July 2015 to June 2018, and was funded mainly by a $4.6 million grant from the John Templeton Foundation, with $453,000 in additional funding from Saint Louis University. The project leader is Dan Haybron, Professor of Philosophy at Saint Louis University.
