Our principal research interest is the organization and the dynamics of the large-scale neuronal networks of the brain that characterize mental functions, and the understanding of disturbances of these networks in patients with brain dysfunctions.
Electromagnetic imaging based on high-resolution EEG is our principal instrument to study these questions. It is combined with Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)Transcranial MagneticStimulation (TMS), and multichannel intracranial recordings in patients.

Topic of the Month:

The FBML is happy to annonce that the

Pfizer Research Award 2011

Category "Neurosciences and Diseases of the Nervous System"
