Maxi Becker

Dr. Maxi Becker serves as a Scientific Collaborator at the Institute of Psychology within the Faculty of Life Sciences at Humboldt University in Berlin, Germany. Her primary research affiliation is with the Cognitive Neuroscience of Aging and Memory group, focusing on interdisciplinary studies at the intersection of psychology and neuroscience.

Her research investigates neural and cognitive mechanisms underlying memory processes in aging populations, utilizing experimental psychology and neuroscientific methodologies. Key interests include age-related cognitive decline, memory consolidation in older adults, and the neurobiological foundations of healthy cognitive aging. This work contributes significantly to gerontology and cognitive neuroscience through empirical studies on memory systems.

The Cognitive Neuroscience of Aging and Memory research group, where Dr. Becker is embedded, conducts laboratory-based investigations into how aging affects memory encoding, retrieval, and neural correlates. The group operates within the Institute of Psychology's facilities at Luisenstraße 50, Berlin, contributing to Humboldt University's research profile in life sciences through experimental paradigms and data analysis focused on cognitive trajectories across the lifespan.
