Jan Gründemann

Prof. Jan Gründemann is a researcher affiliated with the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE). His work focuses on understanding neural mechanisms of multisensory integration, particularly in deep brain areas. He combines advanced circuit neuroscience tools like opto/pharmacogenetics with imaging techniques to study how sensory inputs are processed during learning and memory formation.

Research Interests:

• Deep brain imaging methodologies
• Neural coding principles in associative learning
• Multisensory integration in health and disease
• Thalamocortical and amygdala circuit dynamics

Publications highlight investigations into auditory thalamus plasticity, amygdala ensemble coding, and neural ensembles underlying long-term memory. His work bridges computational neuroscience with experimental approaches to decode brain mechanisms governing behavior.
