Bernstein Node Marburg

Marburg has developed in recent years into a highly dynamic and interdisciplinary hub for computational neuroscience in Germany. Researchers from physics, engineering, psychology, artificial intelligence, medicine, and neuroscience form a closely connected scientific community dedicated to investigating brain function, cognition, behavior, and mental health using quantitative and computational methods.

In addition to “The Adaptive Mind (TAM)”, several major collaborative research initiatives shape this environment, including the Collaborative Research Center/Transregio “Trajectories of Affective Disorders”, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the LOEWE Center DYNAMIC. Together with the Center for Mind, Brain and Behavior (CMBB), these structures integrate theoretical modeling, neuroimaging, neurophysiology, machine learning, and clinical research across more than 20 research groups.

The Bernstein Node Marburg provides an organizational framework that connects and further strengthens these initiatives. Its aim is to enhance collaboration across disciplines, faculties, and career stages, coordinate methodological expertise and related training opportunities in computational neuroscience, and promote the national and international visibility of Marburg’s research within the Bernstein Network for Computational Neuroscience.

The founding members are:

• Prof. Dr. Frank Bremmer
• Prof. Dr. Dominik Endres
• Prof. Dr. Mareike Grotheer
• Prof. Dr. Hamidreza Jamalabadi (Speaker)
• Prof. Dr. Andreas Jansen
