Ulrich Pomper

Ulrich Pomper is a Researcher at the University of Vienna's Faculty of Psychology, Department of Basic Psychological Research and Research Methods. His work focuses on multisensory processing, attention mechanisms, and neural oscillations. He has held postdoctoral positions at UCL Ear Institute (London) and Charité Berlin, and completed his PhD on multisensory integration in 2014 at the University of Bremen. He has supervised multiple MSc students and received grants from ARO, Action on Hearing Loss, and the Organization for Computational Neuroscience.

Education: Diploma in Psychology (University of Vienna, 2009, honors). Key training includes workshops on EEG/MEG analysis (Nijmegen), neuromorphic engineering (Telluride), and fMRI methods (Bremen). He has contributed to research on auditory neuroscience, cognitive control, and the impact of yoga on cognitive performance.

Research interests include temporal orienting, auditory perception, and the neural bases of sensory integration. His recent work explores rhythmic sensory stimulation effects and yoga's impact on task-switching efficiency. He has published over 25 peer-reviewed articles and actively reviews for journals like NeuroImage and Journal of Neurophysiology.

Notable achievements include public engagement with BBC Science in Action and TV appearances discussing music's emotional effects on the brain. He co-founded a state-of-the-art EEG lab at Charité Berlin in 2011-2012, featuring advanced neuroimaging setups.
