Since 2002
Group Leader at the Department
of
Neurology
(Head of
department: Prof Dr. H.-J.
Heinze).
My workgroup focusses on the neural basis of visual perception, motor
action and their interaction in "natural" every day life
conditions. Methodologically we investigate ways using machine
learning and engineering approaches to better understand brain
function. Our
methods include psychophysics, fMRI, ECoG, EEG/MEG, and eye movement
measurements. See Research
for more details.
