Professor Werner Hemmert leads the Bio-Inspired Information Processing group at the Munich Institute of Biomedical Engineering (TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology). His research spans theoretical, biomedical, and systems neuroscience, focusing on auditory processing, cochlear implants, and computational modeling of neural coding mechanisms.
- Primary research focus: Theoretical Neuroscience & Technical Applications
- Secondary research focus: Biomedical Neuroscience
- Tertiary research focus: Cellular & Systems Neuroscience
His work employs computational modeling, psychophysical and objective nerve potential measurements, vibration analysis, and otoacoustic emission measurements to investigate:
- Coding of sound into nerve-action potentials
- Neuronal processing in the auditory brainstem
- Electrical stimulation of neurons
- Patient measurements in cochlear implant users
- Biophysics of sensory organs and neurons
Recent publications highlight his contributions to auditory neuroscience, including studies on neural coding dynamics, computational modeling of auditory systems, and biophysical mechanisms of hearing. These works intersect with fields like neural networks, computational modeling, and auditory signal processing.
Current or graduated GSN students under his supervision include Miguel Obando, Anna Dietze, Dr. Michael Drews, and Dr. Miguel Eduardo Obando Leitón.
