Biological psychology - research with heart and brain

By using a broad range of methods from psychology, physiology and brain research, we want to better understand the biological and psychological foundations of our thinking and feeling. We investigate how different movement interventions (e.g. endurance activities such as running but also visuomotor/multisensory activities such as dancing, unicycling or slacklining) affect our brain and thus affective and cognitive functions. In addition, interventions in the emotional-cognitive area are intended to improve creative thinking in everyday life and thus the possibilities for personal action.
