Dr Katja Kornysheva

• MA (Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig)
• PhD (Max Planck Institute for Neurological Research, Cologne, Germany.)

I specialize primarily on postgraduate teaching in:

• Systems and Cognitive Neuroscience
• Neuroimaging
• Applied Neuroscience
• Motor learning and Control
• Memory

I am organizer of the new postgraduate module "Applied Neuroscience and Human Performance - Theoretical Principles" (starting in 2018/2019).

Currently, I supervise dissertation projects at both the Bachelor's, Master's and PhD level.

Motor skill learning and memory; sequencing and timing; cortical and subcortical motor control; fMRI; TMS; EEG/MEG; electrophysiology; multivariate pattern analysis
