Biography
I am a cognitive neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig (Germany), working in the lab of Christian Doeller. 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.
