Heidrun Schultz

Heidrun obtained a Diplom (MSc equivalent) in Psychology at TU Dresden and a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Hamburg. Since then, she has been researching long-term memory and decision-making at FU Berlin, the University of Birmingham (UK), and the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig. In January 2024, Heidrun joined the Lifespan Developmental Neuroscience group at TU Dresden, where she investigates memory across the lifespan and contributes to the Tec4Tic project.
