Daniela Obst

Daniela Obst is a Researcher at Humboldt University of Berlin affiliated with Collaborative Research Center 1315 (SFB 1315) "Sleep and Memory", conducting interdisciplinary work on sleep-related neural oscillations and stimulation protocols.

Her research centers on Computational Neuroscience and Sleep Research, specifically:

• Spatiotemporal dynamics of slow oscillations during slow-wave sleep
• Whole-brain modeling using empirical connectivity data
• Optimization of transcranial stimulation for memory consolidation
• Phase-amplitude coupling between slow oscillations and spindles
• Individualized neuromodulation approaches
• Neural adaptation mechanisms in sleep physiology

Analysis of her publications reveals a methodological emphasis on combining computational modeling with empirical EEG/fMRI data to decode sleep architecture. Key trends include investigating wave propagation patterns in neural networks and developing precise stimulation parameters to enhance memory processes, with significant focus on anterior-posterior brain dynamics.

As a core member of SFB 1315, Obst collaborates within an interdisciplinary team spanning neuroscience, computational modeling, and clinical sleep research to advance understanding of sleep-memory interactions.
