Consultation hour for analysing fMRI data and other methodological questions
every Thursday 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm, room A7-0-053 – Book an appointment here (Stud.IP)

Research profile

How is the organization of brain networks related to cognitive performance? To investigate this question, I use imaging techniques in combination with cognitive-enhancing drugs. I also have a strong focus on statistical methods.

Major research topics

  • Effects of nicotine on attention performance
  • Graph-theoretical analyses of functional brain networks
  • Robust predective models for inter-individual differences
