“I became a brain researcher because nothing has fascinated me more in my life than trying to understand human cognition, desires and passions.”

Prof. Dr. Georg Auburger

Klinikum der JWGU, Klinik für Neurologie

“For me, brain research unites the creativity of art, the lure of the unknown, the logic of physics, the despair of philosophy, the carefree feeling of playing, the amazement of the observer and the hope of medicine.”

Dr. Christian M. Müller

MPI for Brain Research

“When we explore the brain we are finding out about ourselves – the very being of our mind. Learning processes such as the ability to create representations and models of our environment in our head particularly fascinate me.”

Prof. Dr. Jochen Triesch

FIAS

“I became a brain researcher because I attended a seminar discussing the neurological basis of schizophrenia. The possibility of tracing mental phenomena back to neuronal interactions fascinated me.”

Prof. Dr. Wolf Singer

MPI für Hirnforschung, Neurophysiologie

“Brain research fascinates me because there is nothing more fascinating than the motoric and mental development of a child during its first year of life. The brain is the most complex and complicated human organ. For me, brain research means understanding healthy development, and investigating, identifying and treating diseases that threaten it at an early stage.”

Prof. Dr. med. Matthias Kieslich

Zentrum für Kinderheilkunde und Jugendmedizin, Neuropädiater/Kinderneurologe

“Neuroscience is immensely diverse, including aspects that span from physiology, mathematics to philosophy and medicine – thus positioning it at the core of many fascinating questions. In my view this makes it the most crucial and interesting area of research in modern science.”
