  • Important information: Maternal behaviour is the most important social behaviour of a lactating mother. How is this behaviour regulated by the brain neuropeptides oxytocin and corticotropin-releasing factor?

Prof. Dr. Bj?rn Brembs

  • Important information: We use invertebrate model systems to study the neurobiology of behavior: how do brains decide what to do next?

Prof. Dr. Simon Chang

  • Important information: Zellul?re Neurobiologie

Prof. Dr. Veronica Egger

  • Important information: We investigate processing of olfactory stimuli within the olfactory bulb, both at the level of individual synapses and in neuronal networks.

Prof. Dr. Inga Neumann

  • Important information: We study genetic, molecular and neuronal mechanisms underlying emotional and social behavior, focusing on the neuropeptides oxytocin, vasopressin, and neuropeptide S, and by chronic stress.

Prof. Dr. Stephan Schneuwly

  • Important information: Developmental Biology and Neurodegeneration
    We use the model organism Drosophila melanogaster to study gene functions related to human diseases which either affect the process of development or lead to neurodegeneration as in Parkinson’s disease.
