Welcome

The Group of Computational Synaptic Physiology is part of the Department for Neuro- and Sensory Physiology at the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG). We use computational and mathematical tools to identify and understand the fundamental principles that are governing learning and computation in neuronal systems. In addition, we transfer these principles to advance cutting-edge technologies like robotics or neuromorphic engineering.

For this, we integrate knowledge from different spatial scales, from protein interactions in individual synapses to large-scale adaptive neuronal networks, and take advantage of methods from different scientific disciplines such as nonlinear dynamics, numeric, statistical physics, information theory, or machine learning.

In detail our work covers the following research areas:

  • synaptic physiology of plasticity,
  • computation, learning & memory in neuronal networks,
  • technological applications
