Tobias Rose

Prof. Tobias Rose is a Professor at the University of Bonn Medical Center, leading the Circuit Mechanisms of Behavior group at the Institute for Experimental Epileptology and Cognition Research. His work focuses on neural circuit dynamics underlying learning, memory, and visually guided behavior. He holds a W2 Professorship and previously served as a researcher at the Max-Planck-Institute of Neurobiology and the Friedrich Miescher Institute. His research integrates experimental and computational approaches to study stability vs. plasticity in neural networks.
