My PhD project focuses on analysing the complex interplay between psychological, cognitive and biological processes, by using multimodal MRI, such as fMRI, DWI or MWI. As a biologist, my focus is on investigating microstructural changes co-occuring with the formation and consolidation of engrams in order to identify new potential biomarkers at the cellular and tissue level. Furthermore, I would like to study the link between changes in brain connectivity and memory retrieval.

As a cognitive science student at the University of Tübingen, I’m interested in learning more about memory formation and impairments, e.g., how different memories are encoded and why some events are forgotten. Additionally, I want to further understand the role of sleep (deprivation) in memory processing.

I am highly interested in the neurobiological mechanisms of human behavior, as well as the interaction of psychological, cognitive and biological processes. In my current research, I combine different imaging methods to identify the functional dynamics, as well as microstructural plasticity of neural systems that are implicated in memory formation and consolidation. In addition, I investigate whether these memory systems differ in the quality of their memory representations using multivariate methods.

In my PhD research, I use different neuroimaging techniques to study the functional dynamics and microstructural plasticity changes involved in memory formation in the human brain. I’m interested in how different aspects of complex memories are stored at the systems level. This includes identifying memory engrams for basic visual features in early visual areas and gaining insight into the mechanisms involved.

Currently studying cognitive science at the University of Tübingen with a computer science background. I am fascinated by language, thinking, memory, especially the models and measurement methods that investigate these cognitive functions.

As a Neuroscience Master’s student in Tübingen, I am very interested in how sleep has a role in memory consolidation and how different sleep disorders affect the brain. My goal is to contribute to research in this area and help improve ways to treat sleep disorders.

My PhD project focuses on the mechanisms underlying memory consolidation during wakefulness and sleep. I am particularly interested in how repeated rehearsal of information rapidly stabilizes memories and how this process may differ from sleep-dependent memory consolidation. Using various neuroimaging techniques, I investigate the networks involved in memory reactivation across different brain states and their contribution to forming a stable memory.
