We are pleased to welcome Mareike Gann to the Unit as a visiting academic.

Mareike is a postdoctoral researcher from the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (Germany), whose research focuses on multi-modal network stimulation. During her 6-month visit to the Unit, Mareike will join the Stagg lab to conduct a complex study which will combine neuroimaging and non-invasive brain stimulation techniques. More specifically, she will investigate the effect of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) on functional connectivity between the motor cortices and related behaviour. This project will build on Mareike’s previous experience combining non-invasive brain stimulation and MRI. During her PhD project at KU Leuven (Belgium), she studied whether brain stimulation can modulate neural response in motor memory networks.
