About Us

The Laboratory for Multimodal Neuroimaging (LMN) at the Department of Psychiatry, University of Marburg, is an interdisciplinary research group led by Prof. Andreas Jansen. We investigate the neural basis of cognition using behavioral experiments, multimodal neuroimaging techniques and computational modeling.

As one of the Core Facilities of the University of Marburg, the LMN operates a 3-Tesla MRI scanner, a variety of complementary brain-imaging systems (e.g., EEG, eye tracking), and dedicated high-performance IT infrastructure. In this function, the LMN provides access to state-of-the-art neuroimaging technologies for researchers at the University of Marburg as well as for external collaborators. Over the past 15 years, the LMN has successfully secured more than €10 million in external funding, supporting its research and infrastructure.

We actively participate in numerous national and international research consortia, advancing multimodal neuroimaging and innovative research on brain function and mental health.

The processing of faces constitutes a fundamental ability of the human mind. Neuroimaging studies can help to understand the underlying distributed neural network.
