Research Projects
The following third-party funded projects in the Research Center Neurosensory Science, which illustrate the focus in sensory neuroscience and have great relevance for further development, are particularly noteworthy:
- Cluster of Excellenz EXC 1077 „Hearing for all“ (together with the MHH Hannover and the Leibniz University Hannover, start november 2012, funding period until 2025)
- Collaborative Research Centre "Hearing Acoustics: Perceptive Principles, Algorithms and Applications (HAPPAA)" (speaker: Prof. Dr Volker Hohmann, start July 2018, funding period until 2022)
- Collaborative Research Centre "Magnetoreception and Navigation in Vertebrates" (SFB1372) (speaker: Prof. Hendrik Mouritsen, start january 2019, funding period until 2022)
- Research Training Group 2783 “Neuromodulation of motor and cognitive functions in the healthy and diseased brain” (speaker: Prof. Dr. Christiane Thiel, start: July 2022)
- Research Training Group 2969: Hearable-centered assistance: From sensor to participation – HEARAZ
(Start 2024, Spokesperson: Prof. Dr. Andreas Hein)
In particular, the Cluster of Excellence and the two special research areas have a strong influence on the current development of the research center. In this context, over 40 working groups are working on researching various topics from the sensory areas; A number of junior groups with a neurosensory focus are also conducting research on sensory-related topics.
As part of the expansion of the Faculty VI of Medicine and Health Sciences and by filling new professorships with a clinical and/or neurosensory focus, the opportunities for cooperation within the research center in the direction of clinical research have been significantly improved.
