Hermann Müller

Prof. Dr. Hermann Müller is a W3 Professor of Training Science at the Faculty of Psychology and Sports Science, Justus Liebig University Giessen, and Head of the Training Science Department. His research focuses on human motor strategies, predictive error processing, and neurophysiological correlates of movement kinematics through virtual and real-life sports scenarios.

• Bachelor's degree in Sports and Mathematics, Saarland University (1988)
• Doctorate in Sports Science (1995), Saarland University
• Habilitation in Sports Science (2001), Saarland University

His work bridges Motor Learning, Neurophysiology, and Human Movement Analysis, often involving novel data collection methods. Recent publications emphasize error valuation, predictive modeling, and sensory signal integration in motor tasks, with applications in sports like basketball and throwing mechanics.

Scientific awards include:

• Doctoral scholarship from the German Academic Scholarship Foundation (1992-1993)
• Habilitation scholarship from the German Research Foundation (1997-1999)

Müller leads the junior research group Neuroprocessing in Movement and Training and has collaborated extensively with Dr. Lisa Maurer and Prof. Dr. Hegele on projects funded by the DFG priority program. His research group develops innovative methods for analyzing timing variability and error processing in motor learning.
