Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences

The Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences is a research facility in Germany dedicated to understanding how the human brain supports thinking, memory, perception, and consciousness. Scientists there study how we learn, communicate, and experience the world by using advanced techniques like brain imaging and behavioral experiments. Their goal is to uncover the underlying mechanisms of cognitive functions and develop insights that can improve mental health, education, and technology. The institute collaborates internationally and contributes to advancing knowledge about the human mind and brain.
