MSense We are a research group in the Department of Psychology at LMU Munich, studying how the brain makes sense of time, attention, and uncertainty. Our work spans three questions. How does the brain construct the experience of time — and why does it sometimes get it wrong? How do we learn to focus on what matters and ignore what doesn’t? And how does the brain combine prior knowledge with new evidence to form perceptual beliefs?
We approach these questions through behavioral experiments, neuroimaging, and computational modeling — often combining all three. Our team brings together perspectives from experimental psychology, neuroscience, and computational science.
