We study auditory cognition aiming at a better understanding of the dynamics and individuality of learning and memory processes in the human brain. A strategic goal is to bridge the gap between human and animal research by means of complementary experiments in the domains of auditory categorization, reversal learning, hemispheric interaction, and sequential auditory processing. Furthermore we transfer neurobiological concepts of learning into the domain of man-machine-interaction. We run and provide access to a 3 Tesla and 7 Tesla human MR scanner both equipped with multimodal recording devices (EEG, psychobiological and behavioral parameters).
