Program Overview

Program Description:

The Graduate School of Neural Information Processing provides research-oriented training in a wide spectrum of computational neuroscience topics, such as coding principles in sensory periphery and their clinical application; population coding in the early sensory cortex; perceptual inference mechanisms; and multi-sensory integration processes. Other fields of research include brain computer interfaces, neuroprosthetics and rehabilitation robotics. Furthermore, students get insight into the development of new techniques in MEG and fMRI to improve spatial and temporal resolution. The interdisciplinary combination of neurobiological, psychophysical and theoretical approaches will not only advance understanding of sensory and neural information processing but will also promote the development of technical devices mitigating lost sensory organ or brain function.

Accreditation:

The Graduate School of Neural Information Processing is a sister Graduate School of two accreditated neuroscience schools and will soon be awarded the 'seal of approval' by the board of the accreditation agency.
