Biography
I am a cognitive neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig (Germany). My research interests include spatial navigation and episodic memory. I am most curious about how coding principles in the hippocampal-entorhinal region enable flexible cognition. In my research, I combine fMRI with behavioral experiments and virtual reality technology.
