Brain Dynamics and Imaging Methods

 Group Leader: Michael Marxen, Ph.D.

The Brain Dynamics and Imaging Methods group within the Section of Systems Neuroscience at the Department of Psychiatry of the TU Dresden is interested in understand how our brain states change on the time scale of seconds to minutes during rest or during tasks. For our research, we use primarily functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique in addition to structural imaging protocols, brain stimulation techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) or neurofeedback. Brain processes of particular interest to use are emotional regulation, cognitive control and attention. We are also interested in the development of new data analysis methods, collaborations with more applied scientists and the establishment of good scientific practises at our research institute.
