Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences

Research at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (MPI CBS) revolves around human cognitive abilities and cerebral processes, with a focus on the neural basis of brain functions such as language, memory, navigation, music, and communication. The Department of Neurology of the MPI (Chair: A. Villringer) works together with the Dept. of Cognitive Neurology at ULMC (Joint Directorship) in order to translate findings in basic research into clinical care.
