Dr. Jan-Harry Cabungcal
Meet Dr. Jan-Harry Cabungcal, an accomplished instructor and neuroscientist whose journey combines science, faith, and a genuine passion for discovering what truly makes life worth living. At the University Hospital Medical School of Lausanne, Switzerland, he taught and conducted research in neuroscience, with his articles being published in leading journals. In 2015, Dr. Cabungcal was honored with the Young Investigator Award from the Swiss Society for Biological Psychiatry. He has spoken at top universities and conferences across Europe and the United States. Yet beyond the laboratory and lecture halls, Jan found himself asking bigger questions about life, hope, and purpose.
A personal encounter with faith in 2004 reshaped his path and led him to found Europe Jesus, a ministry dedicated to sharing the message that changed his own life.
Since then, Dr. Cabungcal has traveled to more than 80 countries, engaging audiences from every background with presentations that connect science, faith, and the human experience. In 2021, he and his family committed fully to this mission, bringing together the insights of neuroscience with the timeless truths of the gospel. Together with his wife, Dr. Sabina Cabungcal – a physician in internal and family medicine – they are raising their three children, Naomi, Nathanael, and Jeriel, to live with compassion, purpose, and service to humanity.
Now, Dr. Cabungcal is here to present a series of seminars that are both thought-provoking and deeply practical. As you listen, you may realize, “At last, it makes sense!” and that kind of understanding is what gives us the freedom to breathe, the calm of peace, and the strength to move ahead with hope. Whether you are a person of faith, someone exploring new ideas, or simply looking for clarity about life, these seminars are designed to meet you where you are – speaking to the struggles and longings we all share – and offering fresh insight, renewed hope, and a clearer path for the journey ahead.
