Juliane Döhler
PhD candidate
Fascinated by the ability of the human brain to restructure itself even in old age, I developed a strong interest in how human brain plasticity is linked to behavioral phenotypes in healthy and pathological aging. During my PhD, I focus on interactions between intracortical brain structure and function in healthy aging. Particularly, my work investigates intracortical myelin and iron levels in the sensorimotor system. Using ultra-high resolution MRI at 7 Tesla, my goal is to better understand the functional role of age-related cortical myelin and iron plasticity. Being both, a PhD candidate and clinical psychologist, I further aim to transfer latest neuroscientific perceptions into clinical practice. Find me on ResearchGate. See my publications here.

Alicia Northall
PhD candidate
I have always been interested in the impact of age and neurodegenerative disease on cognitive function. During my master's degree, I explored this interest with brain imaging in stroke patients. I am currently using 7T MRI to characterise the changes in cortical microstructure in ALS patients. See my publications here.

Claudia Liu
PhD candidate
I am interested in human aging and human neurodegenerative diseases. I am using 7T functional and structural MRI to investigate changes in the functional and structural architecture of the human sensorimotor system and their association with behavioural phenotypes, particularly by using multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA). See my publications here.

Avinash Kalyani
PhD candidate
I completed my M.Tech in Signal Processing (Indian Institute of Technology, In dore), and worked as a Research and Development engineer at the National Brain Research Centre, India, where I gained experience in the field of Neuro-imaging and spectroscopy using a 3T-MRI machine. Currently, I am using a 7T-MRI machine to understand the fundamental mechanisms of human motor control using data glove systems that allow real-time motor movement tracking. See my publications here.

Kasia Myga
PhD candidate
I completed my MA degree in Applied Psychology at Jagiellonian University in Cracow. A growing fascination with the human brain led me to acquire a MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuropsychology at Birkbeck, University of London in 2018. I worked as Research Assistant at the 'Body Representation Laboratory' at Birkbeck, University of London, supervised by Professor Matthew Longo. My PhD project investigates the role of autosuggestion on body representations and specifically, on tactile perception using psychophysics, 7T fMRI and EEG. See my publications here.

Lisa Klemm
PhD candidate
After my Bachelor in Mechatronics, I studied Medical Systems Engineering in the master's program. I'm intrigued by the complexity of the human brain, and I love programming as well as signal processing. During my PhD I am developing an algorithm that analyses typical patterns in movement limitations of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) by means of a data glove system. The goal is to automatically diagnose ALS and to better interpret the similar symptoms of its mimics. Find me on ResearchGate. See my publications here.

Christoph Knoll
PhD candidate
“Ingenuity, excellence and continual learning” - these three words sum up my passion for the field of Cognitive Neuroscience and Sport Science. I pursued a Bachelor in the field of Sport Science and an International Master in Performance Analysis of Sports. My master thesis is on “Cortical Activity in Context of Motoric Learning of Cyclic Movements”. I aim to develop a research profile with a long term co-operation in the field of Cognitive Neuroscience and Microstructural Imaging that investigates changes in sensorimotor processing and cognitive mapping. Having worked with EEG (high temporal resolution) already, I now aspire to gain practical insights about the best spatial resolution system of 7 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (7T-MRI). My PhD research is “How motor cortex vascularization patterns contribute to individual learning and training abilities”. Find me on ResearchGate. See my publications here.

Miriam Weber
Medical doctoral candidate
I am a medical student in my fifth year. Coming from a clinical perspective I am interested in motor behavior of patients who suffer from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In my work I asses body part specific motor functions to quantify them in the individual patient. Data will be linked to 7T-MRI data of the motor cortex to describe disease progression in ALS. See my publications here.

Previously: Medical doctoral candidate
Follow-up position: Research Fellow at A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, USA
We are living in a complex world consisting of social structures and diverse hierarchies. Our perceptions of other people are changing constantly - but how fluid are social representations, what are the parameters defining it and what is its neural correlate? Coming from a clinical perspective (Human medicine, Otto von Guericke university, 2019) and being fascinated by human interactions I am tackling the topic of social space using virtual environment and try to find out how it is influenced by an aging society. Find me on ResearchGate. See my publications here.
