**BIOGRAPHY**\\ | **BIOGRAPHY**\\ | ||
- | Aiming to apply mathematical approaches to biological questions, I studied biophysics at Humboldt University Berlin. Soon I discovered that neurons and their biophysics are highly interesting. My first hands-on encounter with neuroscience research was during my Diploma thesis in the lab of Simon Laughlin at the University of Cambridge, where I explored the optimal number of stochastic ion channels a cell should be equipped with for an energy-efficient relay of information. For the first half of my PhD, I joined the lab of Terry Sejnowski at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla as a doctoral Sloan-Swartz Fellow. Bridging the thesis between both labs, I completed the dissertation in Berlin in the lab of Andreas Herz. In 2008 I received the Bernstein Award for Computational Neuroscience which allowed me to found my own computational neurophysiology lab at Humboldt-University Berlin, where I was tenured in 2015. My lab investigates principles of neural computation combining a biophysical and an evolutionary perspective. | + | Aiming to apply mathematical approaches to biological questions, I studied biophysics at Humboldt University Berlin.

My lab investigates principles of neural computation combining a biophysical and an evolutionary perspective. I chair the Bernstein Network for Computational Neuroscience in Germany (since 2019) and am Vice Chair of the German Ethics Council (since 2020). |
