The center currently unites 128 neuroscientists from six faculties of the OVGU, from the Leibniz Institute of Neurobiology, and from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases. The main topics of research are learning and memory, physiological and pathophysiological processes of brain plasticity, neuromodulation and cognition.
The research center unites research groups with engineering, systems theory, mathematical, medical and biological backgrounds. Scientists from five faculties of Otto von Guericke University and from the Max Planck Institute work closely together across disciplines to achieve the jointly set goals.
The interdisciplinary university center CAME "Center for Advanced Medical Engineering", which will be founded in the summer of 2021, will in future enable scientists from all nine faculties of the University of Magdeburg to work even more closely together in the successful profile-forming research focus of medical engineering.
The CHaMP research center brings together more than 65 scientists from eight faculties of the university with a common research interest. The core topic of the research center is the prevention of common diseases. Central elements here are the further development of personalized medicine and precision medicine.
