Humans have long pondered how the workings of the human brain. Indeed evidence of holes drilled in skulls from our pre-historic ancestors suggests that attempts to heal pain, alleviate health issues and experiment with brain function is as old as we are.
Join us for this special episode with Professor Josef Rauschecker, of Georgetown University in Washington, where we explore the advancements made by neuroscience in recent years, and examine how accelerations in technology and interdisciplinary research has exciting implications for the future of human health. Josef has dedicated over forty years to the discipline of neuroscience, and was appointed as a TUM Ambassador in 2019 in recognition of his efforts. Originally a TUM graduate, and for many years a Hans Fischer Senior Fellow at the TUM Institute for Advanced Studies, we are delighted to name Professor Rauschecker as a firm member of our community.
It is also important to note that Prof. Rauschecker‘s tinnitus project with Prof. Weber received an enormous boost through the arrival of Prof. Barbara Wollenberg, Director of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, at the Klinikum rechts der Isar in 2019. She and her team will collaborate in this research project, which will raise the profile of the ENT clinic in the field of tinnitus.
